[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-2217) The expire launching task should cover the UNASSIGNED task

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2217?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13889019#comment-13889019 ] 

Bob Liu commented on MAPREDUCE-2217:
------------------------------------

Have you folks take Distributed Cache into consideration? During a large cache download, tasktrackers are being put in the "UNASSIGNED" stated as well, does that means jobs with "large" distributed cache won't even get a chance to launch at all?

> The ExpireLaunchingTask thread kills the task that are scheduled but not responded.
> Currently if a task is scheduled on tasktracker and for some reason tasktracker cannot put it to RUNNING.
> The task will just hang in the UNASSIGNED status and JobTracker will keep waiting for it.
> JobTracker.ExpireLaunchingTask should be able to kill this task.
