Hi Rauljin Few things to check here. What is the number of reduce slots in each Task Tracker? What is the number of reduce tasks for your job? Based on the availability of slots the reduce tasks are scheduled on TTs.
You can do the following Set the number of reduce tasks to 8 or more. Play with the number of slots (not very advisable for tweaking this on a job level ) The reducers are scheduled purely based on the slot availability so it won't be that easy to ensure that all TT are evenly loaded with same number of reducers.
