Task tracker should wait for the process to exit before declaring the task successful or failed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-2375 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2375 Project: Hadoop Issue Type: Bug Components: mapred Reporter: Owen O'Malley Currently when a task declares it is done, the status in the task tracker is changed immediately. Instead it should wait for the subprocess to actually be done before it moves to one of the final states. This lead to a race condition where the task was still generating log data after the job tracker had reported the task as done. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
