tasks are left over when a job fails
------------------------------------

         Key: HADOOP-225
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-225
     Project: Hadoop
        Type: Bug

  Components: mapred  
    Reporter: Yoram Arnon
    Priority: Minor


when jobs are stopped or otherwise fail, tasks are often left around.
the job tracker shows that there are map or reduce (mostly reduce) tasks 
running, when no job is running.
these accumulate over time.
eventually there are so many of those, that the job tracker can't launch new 
tasks, requiring a restart of the MR cluster.
