[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-2175) Blacklisted hosts may not be able to
serve map outputs
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2175?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Amar Kamat updated HADOOP-2175:
-------------------------------
Attachment: HADOOP-2175-v1.patch
Attaching a patch that marks blacklisted trackers as lost. Since {{FAILED}} and {{KILLED}} tasks have associated counts, this patch ignores these tasks. {{RUNNING}} and {{SUCCEEDED}} tasks are re-scheduled. If a task is {{FAILED}} its still considered {{FAILED}} because
1) There are counts associated with it and is used for killing a {{TIP}}
2) Changing the state causes inconsistency between the failed-task counts and actual number of failed-tasks.

>
> After a node fails 4 mappers (tasks), it is added to blacklist thus it will no longer accept tasks.
> But, it will continue serve the map outputs of any mappers that ran successfully there.
> However, the node may not be able serve the map outputs either.
> This will cause the reducers to mark the corresponding map outputs as from slow hosts,
> but continue to try to get the map outputs from that node.
> This may lead to waiting forever.
