Job Priority Hadoop 0.20.203

[Nitin Khandelwal <ni...@germinait.com>]

Hi,

I am using Hadoop 0.20.203 with the new API ( mapreduce package) . I want to
use Jobpriority, but unfortunately there is no option to set that in Job (
the option is there in 0.21.0). Can somebody plz tell me is there is a
walkaround to set job priority?

Thanks,

 Job priority is slowly (read: unofficially) on its way to getting deprecated, if one takes the fact that cap sched now completely ignores it in 203.  I, too, am sad about this.

Nitin,

Workaround is to set "mapred.job.priority" to the JobPriority Enum
string (#toString is sufficient) in your Job's Configuration instance.
