Chris Douglas updated MAPREDUCE-1366:
-------------------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Patch Available)

Failures appear related to MAPREDUCE-1275. Will try again.

bq. When i tried to test the patch, I realized that the test timeout on 
MAPREDUCE-1365 is because of MAPREDUCE-1371. 

*nod* Yes, you're right. I hadn't tested that. The test timeout wasn't my 
motivation, but the spurious failure in MAPREDUCE-64 that would be easier to 
diagnose.

bq. I would only set the fatalError value if it is not null, so that the 
earliest fault gets retained. A setFatalError() method could do this.

I don't see what you mean. Each tracker retains its cause of death; it's not 
shared between them and each tracker should only set this once. Are you 
suggesting making the error global and retaining only the first fault across 
all trackers?

bq. Also, this may be an opportunity to give the MiniMRCluster and MinDFS 
cluster a common base class rather than continue to duplicate code.

Refactoring the Mini\*Clusters is out of scope for this issue. This is just 
making the cause of test failures related to HADOOP-4744 clearer.
