Task attempt stopped shuffling and hung the job
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-5758
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5758
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.18.3
            Reporter: Nathan Marz


I was running a job and one of the reducer task attempts got stuck during the 
shuffle phase. The percentage complete froze at 33.1%, and the logs for the 
attempt looked like:

The mappers and other reducers were long finished. When I manually killed the 
task attempt process after 20 minutes of seeing it frozen, it restarted on 
another machine and succeeded just fine.
