[jira] [Resolved] (MAPREDUCE-229) Provide a command line option to check if a Hadoop jobtracker is idle

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-229?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Allen Wittenauer resolved MAPREDUCE-229.
----------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I'm going to close this as fixed.

Clients can ask the JT if they are currently busy.  By doing this periodically, they can build an idle time.

> This is an RFE for providing a way to determine from the hadoop command line whether a jobtracker is idle. One possibility is to have something like hadoop jobtracker -idle <time>. Hadoop would return true (maybe via some stdout output) if the jobtracker had no work to do (jobs running / prepared) since <time> seconds, false otherwise.
> This would be useful for management / provisioning systems like Hadoop-On-Demand [HADOOP-1301], which can then deallocate the idle, provisioned clusters automatically, and release resources.
