Summary: Combiner not used when NUM_REDUCES=0 Key: MAPREDUCE-5051 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5051 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Bug Components: mrv1 Affects Versions: 2.0.2-alpha Environment: CDH4.1.2 MR1 Reporter: Damien Hardy We have a M/R job that use Mapper + Combiner but have nothing to do in Reducer : Bulk indexing of HBase data in ElasticSearch, Map output is K / V : #bulk / json_data_to_be_indexed. So job is launched maps work, combiners index and a reducer is created for nothing (sometimes waiting for other M/R job to free a tasktracker slot for reducer cf. MAPREDUCE-5019 ) When we put ```job.setNumReduceTasks(0);``` in our job .run(), mapper are started but combiner are not used. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
