Mahadev konar commented on MAPREDUCE-3121: ------------------------------------------ @Eli, The patch attached allows the NM to tolerate disk failures as the TT did in MR-2413. The current MR code (both in 0.23 and 0.20.205) does not distinguish why a task failed, could be a disk failure on a node or IO error. So the client will see it as a failure. We could later sometime do optimizations to be smart about disk failures (saying a task failure on a node with disk failure doesnt count against max num failures) but I think it might have diminishing returns in production environments. Want to open a jira to track it? > NodeManager should handle disk-failures > --------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-3121 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3121 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mrv2, nodemanager > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli > Assignee: Ravi Gummadi > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.23.1 > > Attachments: 3121.patch, 3121.v1.1.patch, 3121.v1.patch, > 3121.v2.patch, 3121.v3.patch > > > This is akin to MAPREDUCE-2413 but for YARN's NodeManager.
