Sharad Agarwal commented on HADOOP-4305: ---------------------------------------- +1 for heartbeat related changes in JT and TT. > repeatedly blacklisted tasktrackers should get declared dead > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-4305 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4305 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Reporter: Christian Kunz > Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu > Fix For: 0.20.0 > > Attachments: patch-4305-0.18.txt, patch-4305-1.txt, patch-4305-2.txt, > patch-4305-3.txt > > > When running a batch of jobs it often happens that the same tasktrackers are > blacklisted again and again. This can slow job execution considerably, in > particular, when tasks fail because of timeout. > It would make sense to no longer assign any tasks to such tasktrackers and to > declare them dead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
