Mike Roark commented on MAPREDUCE-3859: --------------------------------------- Any updates on this bug? It is affecting us as well.. it has a pretty bad effect on cluster utilization for these kinds of jobs. I tested this locally to see if it was this issue, results below: 10 datanodes, each with 6 slots for reducers, 60 reducer slots total. No other jobs running. Running jobs in a queue which has "Reduce tasks, Capacity: 4 slots, Maximum capacity: 60 slots" Reducer sleeps for a while. This allows me to check steady state reducer slot allocation. ||mapred.reduce.tasks||slots per reducer||expected running reduce tasks||running reduce tasks||using slots||percent of capacity||notes|| |30|1|30|30|30|750| | |30|2|30|{color:red}16{color}|32|800| | |30|3|20|{color:red}1{color}|3|75| really bad | |30|4|10|{color:red}8{color}|32|800| | |30|5|10|{color:red}8{color}|40|1000| | |30|6|10|{color:red}8{color}|48|1200| | |30|7(err)|0|0|0|0| job hangs, but I expected this | > CapacityScheduler incorrectly utilizes extra-resources of queue for > high-memory jobs > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-3859 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3859 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: capacity-sched > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Environment: CDH3u1 > Reporter: Sergey Tryuber > Attachments: test-to-fail.patch.txt > > > Imagine, we have a queue A with capacity 10 slots and 20 as extra-capacity, > jobs which use 3 map slots will never consume more than 9 slots, regardless > how many free slots on a cluster. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
