Chinna Rao Lalam commented on HIVE-10781: ----------------------------------------- Hi [~nemon], org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.mr.HadoopJobExecHelper.runningJobs holds running jobs, if any abrupt shutdown happens shutdown hook uses this running jobs to kill. But in a normal flow after executing the running job it should kill and remove from the list. In normal flow i suspect before removing from the list, if some exception was thrown (while doing rj.killJob()) it won't remove from the list. I have uploaded a patch to fix this..
