The job had 11,000 maps ~ > about 4-5 waves of map tasks and produced 3,500 failed tasks with above > error. We eventually killed it and restarted the same job again, with no > problems this time. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
