We've been running 0.18.2 for over a month on an 8 node cluster.
Last week we added 4 more nodes to the cluster and have experienced 2
failures to the tasktrackers since then.
The namenodes are running fine but all jobs submitted will die when
submitted with this error on the tasktrackers.
2009-01-28 08:07:55,556 INFO org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker:

I tried running the tasktrackers in debug mode but the entries above are
all that show up in the logs.
As of now my cluster is down.
