------------------------------------------
Hi Amareshwari, do you think that this patch is applicable to the hadoop 0.17
branch as well? (This is just a question and not a request to apply it to any
branch).
> remove temporary output directory of failed tasks

> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mapred
> Affects Versions: 0.17.2, 0.18.1
> Reporter: Christian Kunz
> Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu
> Fix For: 0.18.3

> When dfs is getting full (80+% of reserved space), the rate of write failures
> increases, such that more map-reduce tasks can fail. By not cleaning up the
> temporary output directory of tasks the situation worsens over the lifetime
> of a job, increasing the probability of the whole job failing.
