Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-6307:
--------------------------------------
The fix version (if any) should be something way earlier than 13. We didn't
change the behavior here, just made the doc more clear about what the behavior
is.
> "completed" field description should be clarified.

> Key: HIVE-6307
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6307
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation, WebHCat
> Affects Versions: 0.12.0
> Reporter: Eugene Koifman
> Assignee: Lefty Leverenz
>
> 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.
