Arun C Murthy updated MAPREDUCE-430:
------------------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Patch Available)

I had a chat with Amar to explain my take on this:

# {Map|Reduce}Task shouldn't catch Throwable except for the parts where they 
deal with threads e.g. copier threads or merge threads in which case they 
should use a Throwable variable to save the error and check for it.
# Child should catch Throwable, inform the TaskTracker via 
TaskUmbilicalProtocal.fatalError or such and then exit.

Thoughts?
