Few tasks failed while creating the work directory for a job, when job tracker was restarted --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-5487 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5487 Project: Hadoop Core Issue Type: Bug Components: mapred Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala A randomwriter job was running when the job tracker restarted. After the jobtracker restarted, some tasktrackers were sent a reinit action. After this, some new tasks of the random writer were scheduled to be run on the same task trackers. These failed in the job localization while creating the work directory. However, the next attempts of the same job ran successfully and the job succeeded. This happened in about 1% of the total number of tasks. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
