Setup and cleanup tasks could affect job latency if they are caught running on bad nodes ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-1099 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1099 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Bug Components: jobtracker Affects Versions: 0.20.1 Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala We found cases on our clusters where a setup task got scheduled on a bad node and took upwards of several minutes to run, adversely affecting job runtimes. Speculation did not help here as speculation is not used for setup tasks. I suspect the same could happen for cleanup tasks as well. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
