So, the reason most probably is that the particular file being read is being kept open during the computation and thats causing the timeouts. You can try to alter your jobs and number of tasks and see if you can come out with a workaround. > From what I gather in the code, this results from a write attempt - the > selector seems to wait until it can write to a channel - setting this to 0 > might impact our cluster reliability, hence I'm not > > Setting the timeout to 0 doesnt impact the cluster reliability. We have it set to 0 on our clusters as well and its a pretty normal thing to do. However, we do it because we are using HBase as well and that is known to keep file handles open for long periods. But, setting the timeout to 0 doesnt impact any of our non-Hbase applications/jobs at all.. So, its not a problem. > On Thu, Sep 24, 2009 at 3:16 PM, Amandeep Khurana <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > What were you doing when you got this error?
