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: 2009-04-29 15:21:24,431 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0: Got 0 new map-outputs & number of known map outputs is 0 2009-04-29 15:21:24,431 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Scheduled 0 of 0 known outputs (0 slow hosts and 0 dup hosts) 2009-04-29 15:22:24,580 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Need another 1 map output(s) where 0 is already in progress 2009-04-29 15:22:24,581 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0: Got 0 new map-outputs & number of known map outputs is 0 2009-04-29 15:22:24,581 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Scheduled 0 of 0 known outputs (0 slow hosts and 0 dup hosts) 2009-04-29 15:23:24,692 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Need another 1 map output(s) where 0 is already in progress 2009-04-29 15:23:24,693 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0: Got 0 new map-outputs & number of known map outputs is 0 2009-04-29 15:23:24,693 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Scheduled 0 of 0 known outputs (0 slow hosts and 0 dup hosts) 2009-04-29 15:24:24,718 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Need another 1 map output(s) where 0 is already in progress 2009-04-29 15:24:24,718 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0: Got 0 new map-outputs & number of known map outputs is 0 2009-04-29 15:24:24,719 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Scheduled 0 of 0 known outputs (0 slow hosts and 0 dup hosts) 2009-04-29 15:25:24,742 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Need another 1 map output(s) where 0 is already in progress 2009-04-29 15:25:24,743 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0: Got 0 new map-outputs & number of known map outputs is 0 2009-04-29 15:25:24,743 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask: attempt_200904250602_2468_r_000024_0 Scheduled 0 of 0 known outputs (0 slow hosts and 0 dup hosts) 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
