Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-2960:
----------------------------------------

This looks like it failed because of a failed disk on the *JT* rather than the 
TT:
...
        at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.copyToLocalFile(FileSystem.java:1203)
        at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobInProgress.<init>(JobInProgress.java:415)
...

are you running the JT on a machine that has bad disks simulated?
                
> A single TT disk failure can cause the job to fail

>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Sub-task

>    Affects Versions: 0.20.204.0
>            Reporter: Eli Collins
>
> 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.
