JobTracker fails to remove setup tip mapping from taskidToTIPMap if the job gets killed before the setup returns ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-1291 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1291 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Bug Components: jobtracker Reporter: Amar Kamat Priority: Critical Here is the scenario : 1) job inits 2) setup task is launched on tt1 and an entry is made in taskidToTIPMap 3) job is killed 4) cleanup gets launched on tt2 5) cleanup returns KILLING the job and removing all the *completed* setup/map/reduce task mappings from taskidToTIPMap. Here the setup is still RUNNING state. 6) job retires and all the map/reduce mappings from taskidToTIPMap are removed In the end the setup tip still lingers in the taskidToTIPMap map. Because of the backreference from the tip to jip, the whole job stays in memory forever. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
