Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-506: --------------------------------- Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) Fix Version/s: 0.7.0 (was: 0.8.0) Resolution: Fixed > job tracker hangs on to dead task trackers "forever" > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-506 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-506 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Reporter: Yoram Arnon > Assigned To: Sanjay Dahiya > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.7.0 > > Attachments: Hadoop-506.patch > > > I see cases where a task tracker gets disconnected from the job tracker and > disconnects, and then appears twice in the job tracker's list, with one > instance being alive and well, and the other's 'time since last heartbeat' > increasing monotonically. > that all makes sense. > What doesn't make sense, is that the old instances never expire. It's been > over 400000 seoncds since the last heartbeat. And the cluster reports having > more nodes up and running than its size (350 nodes in a 320 node cluster). > there should be some reasonable timout for these expired task trackers, > somewhere between 10 minutes and an hour. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
