Hi,
 
In my hadoop setup, say I have 4 machines (M1 - M4). M1 is the master
with the Job tracker.
Say I want 4 parallel tasks on M1, 2 on M2/M3 and 6 on M4. I set the
corresponding property (mapred.tasktracker.tasks.maximum) in
hadoop-site.xml for each of the machines. 
I observed that when all the task trackers start, maxCurrentTasks is
loaded correctly. But when I execute a job, I can see that 4
TaskTracker$Child execute on each of the machine. Any idea what am I
missing or is this a known bug?

Regards,
Neeraj
