Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-1983: ---------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > jobs using pipes interface with tasks not using java output format have a > good chance of not updating progress and timing out > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1983 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1983 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: pipes > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: Christian Kunz > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > Attachments: pipe-flush.patch > > > When using C++-pipes interface, mappers/reducers not emitting any key-values > pairs, but running longer than 'mapred.task.timeout' might timeout even when > they send periodical status updates upstream. > The cause of the problem is that all upstream messages are buffered. Progress > and status updates should be flushed immediately. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
