custom partitioner

egebilmuh
public int getPartition(IntWritable key, Chromosome value, int numOfPartitions)
 {
                int partition = key.get();
                if (partition < 0 || partition >= numOfPartitions)
                {
                        partition = numOfPartitions-1;
                }
                System.out.println("partition "+partition );
                return partition;
}

I wrote the custom partitioner above. But the problem is about the third parameter, numOfPartitions.

It is always "1" in pseudo-distributed mode. I have 4 mappers and 4 reducers, but only one of the reducers uses the real values. The others yield nothing, just empty files.

When I remove the if statement, hadoop complains about the partition number as "illegal partition for ...".

How can i set the number of partitions in pseudo-distributed mode?

Thanks.
