>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5307
>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mr-am, mrv2
>    Affects Versions: 0.23.7, 2.0.4-alpha
>            Reporter: Jason Lowe
>
> When the AM tries to connect to a node to launch a task attempt but the 
> launcher encounters an error (e.g.: RPC timeout, no connectivity to node, 
> etc.), the error will count as a failed task attempt.  However the task 
> attempt will not appear in the job history leading to confusing situations.
> For example, one job that had particular difficulty connecting to nodes had a 
> task fail four attempts.  Attempts 0, 1, and 3 timed out trying to launch the 
> task, and attempt 2 failed for other reasons.  The job diagnostics were "Task 
> task_1368637921738_2222198_m_000396 failed 1 times" and there was only one 
> task attempt listed for task_1368637921738_2222198_m_000396,  which was 
> attempt_1368637921738_2222198_m_000396_2.
