JVM Reuse triggers RuntimeException("Invalid state")
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-4595
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4595
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapred
    Affects Versions: 0.19.0
            Reporter: Aaron Kimball


A Reducer triggers the following exception:

08/11/05 08:58:50 INFO mapred.JobClient: Task Id : 
attempt_200811040110_0230_r_000008_1, Status : FAILED
java.lang.RuntimeException: Inconsistent state!!! JVM Manager reached an 
unstable state while reaping a JVM for task:

Other clues:

In the three reduce task attempts where this was observed, this was attempt _1. 
Attempt _0 had started and eventually switches to "SUCCEEDED." So I think this 
is happening only on speculatively-executed reduce task attempts. The reduce 
output (part-XXXXX) gets lost when this attempt fails, even though the other 
(earlier) attempt succeeded.
