public class JobID
extends JobID

JobID represents the immutable and unique identifier for the job. JobID consists of two parts. First part represents the jobtracker identifier, so that jobID to jobtracker map is defined. For cluster setup this string is the jobtracker start time, for local setting, it is "local". Second part of the JobID is the job number.
An example JobID is : job_200707121733_0003 , which represents the third job running at the jobtracker started at 200707121733.

Applications should never construct or parse JobID strings, but rather use appropriate constructors or forName(String) method.

Constructor Detail

JobID

public JobID(String jtIdentifier,
             int id)

Constructs a JobID object

Parameters:

jtIdentifier - jobTracker identifier

id - job number

JobID

public JobID()

Method Detail

downgrade

public static JobID downgrade(JobID old)

Downgrade a new JobID to an old one

Parameters:

old - a new or old JobID

Returns:

either old or a new JobID build to match old

read

@Deprecated
public static JobID read(DataInput in)
                  throws IOException

Deprecated.

Throws:

IOException

forName

public static JobID forName(String str)
                     throws IllegalArgumentException

Construct a JobId object from given string

Returns:

constructed JobId object or null if the given String is null

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the given string is malformed

getJobIDsPattern

@Deprecated
public static String getJobIDsPattern(String jtIdentifier,
                                                 Integer jobId)

Deprecated.

Returns a regex pattern which matches task IDs. Arguments can be given null, in which case that part of the regex will be generic. For example to obtain a regex matching any job run on the jobtracker started at 200707121733, we would use :

 
 JobID.getTaskIDsPattern("200707121733", null);
 

which will return :

 "job_200707121733_[0-9]*" 

Parameters:

jtIdentifier - jobTracker identifier, or null

jobId - job number, or null

Returns:

a regex pattern matching JobIDs
