map tasks lost during sort
--------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-813
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-813
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapred
    Affects Versions: 0.10.0
            Reporter: Owen O'Malley
         Assigned To: Devaraj Das
             Fix For: 0.10.0


On a 500 node cluster, I had a bunch of map tasks get "lost" because they 
failed to report progress for 10 minutes. They appear to be in the sort stage 
at the end of the map. I hypothesize that the patch for HADOOP-331 does not 
update the map's progress during the sort/merge. If the sort/merge takes more 
than 10 minutes, the task is lost.
