Gopal V updated YARN-1773: -------------------------- Target Version/s: 2.5.0 (was: 2.4.0) Affects Version/s: 2.4.0 > ShuffleHeader should have a format that can inform about errors > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-1773 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1773 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.3.0, 2.4.0 > Reporter: Bikas Saha > Priority: Critical > > Currently, the ShuffleHeader (which is a Writable) simply tries to read the > successful header (mapid, reduceid etc). If there is an error then the input > will have an error message instead of (mapid, reducedid etc). Thus parsing > the ShuffleHeader fails and since we dont know where the error message ends, > we cannot consume the remaining input stream which may have good data from > the remaining map outputs. Being able to encode the error in the > ShuffleHeader will let us parse out the error correctly and move on to the > remaining data. > The shuffle handler response should say which maps are in error and which are > fine, what the error was for the erroneous maps. These will help report > diagnostics for easier upstream reporting. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
