Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6307:
--------------------------------------

I marked this as "Done" instead of "Fixed" because no code was checked in.  And 
I left "Fix Version" empty because the wiki isn't tied to any release.  (But it 
could be marked as a fix for 0.13.0 to include it in the release notes.)

> "completed" field description should be clarified.

> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/WebHCat+Reference+Job 
> explains the fields in the JSON document which contains status information 
> for a particular job.
> "completed" field is set once the process that the Launcher task launched 
> returns.  For example, if user submitted a M/R job via webhcat, "completed" 
> will be set to "done" once the "hadoop jar" command that the Launcher invokes 
> exits.  If one is looking for status of the job itself, the fields inside 
> "status" element should be consulted (e.g. "jobComplete" or "runState").
> Current doc is not clear and may mislead WebHCat user into thinking 
> "completed" is a property of the job itself.
