My apologies that I'm so sketchy on details right now... so far, I
haven't been any able to find any evidence of something going wrong
except for the hadoop log entries when the IOExceptions start.

I just lost my networking again. This time, I had switched my cluster
back to the build I was using before I switched to CDH2.

It's Hadoop 0.20.1 with these patches applied (for Dumbo):

HADOOP-1722-v0.20.1
HADOOP-5450
MAPREDUCE-764
HADOOP-5528

Now I'm wondering if something about my job is the culprit. I have 2
nodes, both 8 core machines.
mapred.tasktracker.map|reduce.tasks.maximum are both set to 7.

The job I'm running is combining lots of gzipped Apache log files into
sequence files for later analysis... I'm going from one file per
virtual host per server per day to file per virtual host per day. The
last attempt had ~1400 maps/10 reduces.



could be just file handles you are losing; have up upped the OS defaults?
