Amareshwari Sriramadasu updated HADOOP-4261: -------------------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) > Jobs failing in the init stage will never cleanup > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4261 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4261 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Reporter: Amar Kamat > Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.19.0 > > Attachments: patch-4261.txt > > > Pre HADOOP-3150, if the job fails in the init stage, {{job.kill()}} was > called. This used to make sure that the job was cleaned up w.r.t > - staus set to KILLED/FAILED > - job files from the system dir are deleted > - closing of job history files > - making jobtracker aware of this through {{jobTracker.finalizeJob()}} > - cleaning up the data structures via {{JobInProgress.garbageCollect()}} > Now if the job fails in the init stage, {{job.fail()}} is called which doesnt > do the cleanup. HADOOP-3150 introduces cleanup tasks which are launched once > the job completes i.e killed/failed/succeeded. Jobtracker will never > consider this job for scheduling as the job will be in the {{PREP}} state > forever. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
