One more Dist agent question. In the Reduce function for the master task as it runs through the list of childResults, what besides OK and errMsg *could* go in these results? I'm looking at what information from the child task can be bubbled up to the parent reduce function. it appears that only the OK and errMsg are taken from the child task, and I'm not certain if it is the result of the child Reduce or the child Map function that is being passed up to the master task Reduce
So the question is this: In jobChain Reduce, in childResults, a) is the resultant assoc for each child the result of Map or Reduce, and b) is it possible to return any information from child to parent?
