MapReduce History Server REST API's.

Overview

The history server REST API's allow the user to get status on finished applications.

History Server Information API

The history server information resource provides overall information about the history server.

Both of the following URI's give you the history server information, from an application id identified by the appid value. 

  * http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history
  * http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history/info

HTTP Operations Supported

  * GET

Query Parameters Supported

  None

Elements of the historyInfo object

Item Data Type Description
startedOn long The time the history server was started (in ms since epoch)
hadoopVersion string Version of hadoop common
hadoopBuildVersion string Hadoop common build string with build version, user, and checksum
hadoopVersionBuiltOn string Timestamp when hadoop common was built

MapReduce API's

The following list of resources apply to MapReduce.

Jobs API

The jobs resource provides a list of the MapReduce jobs that have finished. It does not currently return a full list of parameters

URI
  *  http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history/mapreduce/jobs
HTTP Operations Supported 
  * GET
Query Parameters Supported

Multiple paramters can be specified. The started and finished times have a begin and end parameter to allow you to specify ranges. For example, one could request all jobs that started between 1:00am and 2:00pm on 12/19/2011 with startedTimeBegin=1324256400&startedTimeEnd=1324303200. If the Begin parameter is not specfied, it defaults to 0, and if the End parameter is not specified, it defaults to infinity.

  * user - user name
  * state - the job state
  * queue - queue name
  * limit - total number of app objects to be returned
  * startedTimeBegin - jobs with start time beginning with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * startedTimeEnd - jobs with start time ending with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * finishedTimeBegin - jobs with finish time beginning with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * finishedTimeEnd - jobs with finish time ending with this time, specified in ms since epoch
Elements of the jobs object

When you make a request for the list of jobs, the information will be returned as an array of job objects. See also Job API for syntax of the job object. Except this is a subset of a full job. Only startTime, finishTime, id, name, queue, user, state, mapsTotal, mapsCompleted, reducesTotal, and reducesCompleted are returned.

Item Data Type Description
job array of job objects(json)/zero or more job objects(XML) The collection of job objects

Job Conf API

A job configuration resource contains information about the job configuration for this job.

URI

Use the following URI to obtain th job configuration information, from a job identified by the jobid value. 

  * http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history/mapreduce/jobs/{jobid}/conf
HTTP Operations Supported 
  * GET
Query Parameters Supported
  None
Elements of the conf object
Item Data Type Description
path string The path to the job configuration file
property array of the configuration properties(JSON)/zero or more configuration properties(XML) Collection of configuration property objects
Elements of the property object
Item Data Type Description
name string The name of the configuration property
value string The value of the configuration property
source string The location this configuration object came from. If there is more then one of these it shows the history with the latest source at the end of the list.

Tasks API

With the tasks API, you can obtain a collection of resources that represent a task within a job. When you run a GET operation on this resource, you obtain a collection of Task Objects.

URI
  * http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history/mapreduce/jobs/{jobid}/tasks
HTTP Operations Supported 
  * GET
Query Parameters Supported
  * type - type of task, valid values are m or r.  m for map task or r for reduce task.
Elements of the tasks object

When you make a request for the list of tasks , the information will be returned as an array of task objects. See also Task API for syntax of the task object.

Item Data Type Description
task array of task objects(JSON)/zero or more task objects(XML) The collection of task objects.

Task Attempts API

With the task attempts API, you can obtain a collection of resources that represent a task attempt within a job. When you run a GET operation on this resource, you obtain a collection of Task Attempt Objects.

URI
  * http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history/mapreduce/jobs/{jobid}/tasks/{taskid}/attempts
HTTP Operations Supported 
  * GET
Query Parameters Supported
  None
Elements of the taskAttempts object

When you make a request for the list of task attempts, the information will be returned as an array of task attempt objects. See also Task Attempt API for syntax of the task object.

Item Data Type Description
taskAttempt array of task attempt objects(JSON)/zero or more task attempt objects(XML) The collection of task attempt objects

Task Attempt API

A Task Attempt resource contains information about a particular task attempt within a job.

URI

Use the following URI to obtain an Task Attempt Object, from a task identified by the attemptid value. 

  * http://<history server http address:port>/ws/v1/history/mapreduce/jobs/{jobid}/tasks/{taskid}/attempt/{attemptid}
HTTP Operations Supported 
  * GET
Query Parameters Supported
  None
Elements of the taskAttempt object
Item Data Type Description
id string The task id
rack string The rack
state string The state of the task attempt - valid values are: NEW, UNASSIGNED, ASSIGNED, RUNNING, COMMIT_PENDING, SUCCESS_CONTAINER_CLEANUP, SUCCEEDED, FAIL_CONTAINER_CLEANUP, FAIL_TASK_CLEANUP, FAILED, KILL_CONTAINER_CLEANUP, KILL_TASK_CLEANUP, KILLED
type string The type of task
assignedContainerId string The container id this attempt is assigned to
nodeHttpAddress string The http address of the node this task attempt ran on
diagnostics string A diagnostics message
progress float The progress of the task attempt as a percent
startTime long The time in which the task attempt started (in ms since epoch)
finishTime long The time in which the task attempt finished (in ms since epoch)
elapsedTime long The elapsed time since the task attempt started (in ms)

For reduce task attempts you also have the following fields:

Item Data Type Description
shuffleFinishTime long The time at which shuffle finished (in ms since epoch)
mergeFinishTime long The time at which merge finished (in ms since epoch)
elapsedShuffleTime long The time it took for the shuffle phase to complete (time in ms between reduce task start and shuffle finish)
elapsedMergeTime long The time it took for the merge phase to complete (time in ms between the shuffle finish and merge finish)
elapsedReduceTime long The time it took for the reduce phase to complete (time in ms between merge finish to end of reduce task)
