A single TT disk failure can cause the job to fail
--------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-2960
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2960
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: tasktracker
Affects Versions: 0.20.204.0
Reporter: Eli Collins
Fix For: 0.20.205.0
TaskInProgress#kill in the JT fails because TaskStatus#setFinishTimes fails
because no start time was set. There's no start time because TaskTracker#run
(DefaultTaskController#initializeJob) failed before it was set. The fix is to
have TT#launchTask set the start time before it starts the task runner, this
way there's a valid start time even if TT#run fails.
