Hi-

Is there a simple way for error output / debug information generated by
a Mapper to be collected in one place for a given M/R job run? I guess
what I'm hoping for is sort of the reverse of a Distributed Cache function.

Can anyone suggest an approach?

Thanks,

Terry

If it is only to get a parse overview of the run you can use counters. But
you shouldn't overuse them.
You can for example count exceptions by type (but by message is not a good
approach unless you are sure that the message is constant.)

Regards

Bertrand
