Eric Payne updated MAPREDUCE-6166:
----------------------------------
Summary: Reducers do not catch corrupted map output transfers during
shuffle if data shuffled directly to disk (was: Reducers do not catch bad map
output transfers during shuffle if data shuffled directly to disk)

> In very large map/reduce jobs (50000 maps, 2500 reducers), the intermediate
> map partition output gets corrupted on disk on the map side. If this
> corrupted map output is too large to shuffle in memory, the reducer streams
> it to disk without validating the checksum. In jobs this large, it could take
> hours before the reducer finally tries to read the corrupted file and fails.
> Since retries of the failed reduce attempt will also take hours, this delay
> in discovering the failure is multiplied greatly.
