This looks like you are using the Capacity scheduler with high memory job configuration. Did you set any specific memory parameters ? Also, are there no jobs in the cluster other than this one ? Can you give the version of Hadoop being used, and configuration of memory related parameters ? > > And the cluster shows no activity of the job progressing: (% complete is 0 in > the map jobs).. I see no errors/activity in tasktrackers.. > > I would appreciate it if someone helps me with this one. > Thank you > Vidhya >
