[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-4729) job history UI not showing all job attempts

["Robert Joseph Evans (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4729?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13478236#comment-13478236 ] 

Robert Joseph Evans commented on MAPREDUCE-4729:
------------------------------------------------

That is a bit odd.  The only thing I can think of is that the jhist files from the previous runs were corrupted some how.  The way we have set things up on the AM an OOM will shut things down very hard with no time for cleanup, so the end of the file may have had some issues. This is just speculation.

> We are seeing a case where a job runs but the AM is running out of memory in the first 3 attempts. The job eventually finishes on the 4th attempt.  When you go to the job history UI for that job, it only shows the last attempt.  This is bad since we want to see why the first 3 attempts failed.
> The RM web ui shows all 4 attempts. 
> Also I tested this locally by running "kill" on the app master and in that case the history server UI does show all attempts.
