[MAPREDUCE-7495] Broken sort for numeric columns in UI

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open

Description

Some columns the datatables of the UI have the sType "numeric". For instance: the elapsed time in mappers or reducers in the Mapreduce job UI, or the number of completed mappers/reducers in the Job History.

However, since the version 1.10 of the datatables library, the type "numeric" has been replaced by "num". As a consequence, the columns are now sorted lexicographically.
Replacing "numeric" with "num" fixes the issue.

 

Tested on version 3.3.6, but I believe it may apply since version 3.1.2.
