Description

When I am killing a job like this

hadoop job -kill <jobid>

I am getting a cryptic warning, which I don't really understand:

DEPRECATED: Use of this script to execute mapred command is deprecated.
Instead use the mapred command for it.

I fail parsing this and I believe many others will do too. Please make this warning clearer.
