Hi! I tried this (by setting spark.task.maxFailures to 1) and it still does not fail-fast. I started a job and after some time, I killed all JVMs running on one of the two workers. I was expecting Spark job to fail, however it re-fetched tasks to one of the two workers that was still alive and the job succeeded.
