Steve Loughran commented on MAPREDUCE-1100: ------------------------------------------- OK, so what do you want here? I could +1 MAPREDUCE-1057 and if hudson is happy, push out to 0.21/0.22 branches. MAPREDUCE-1100 would be the patch that goes into trunk. The other fix would be documentation. I've added something on logging to [http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/DiskSetup] but it could be improved. More subtly, any production cluster that doesn't have a limit on log size is doomed. Some preflight checks could note this and perhaps warn. > User's task-logs filling up local disks on the TaskTrackers > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1100 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1100 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: tasktracker > Affects Versions: 0.21.0 > Reporter: Vinod K V > Assignee: Vinod K V > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-1100-20091102.txt, > MAPREDUCE-1100-20091106.txt, MAPREDUCE-1100-20091216.2.txt, > patch-1100-fix-ydist.2.txt > > > Some user's jobs are filling up TT disks by outrageous logging. > mapreduce.task.userlog.limit.kb is not enabled on the cluster.
