> I have come across an issue with CombineFileInputFormat. Actually I ran a hive query on approx 1.2 GB data with CombineHiveInputFormat which internally uses CombineFileInputFormat. My cluster size is 9 datanodes and max.split.size is 256 MB
> When I ran this query with replication factor 9, hive consistently creates all 6 rack-local tasks and with replication factor 3 it creates 5 rack-local and 1 data local tasks. 
>  When replication factor is 9 (equal to cluster size), all the tasks should be data-local as each datanode contains all the replicas of the input data, but that is not happening i.e all the tasks are rack-local. 
> When I dug into CombineFileInputFormat.java code in getMoreSplits method, I found the issue with the following snippet (specially in case of higher replication factor)
> {code:title=CombineFileInputFormat.java|borderStyle=solid}
> for (Iterator<Map.Entry<String,
>          List<OneBlockInfo>>> iter = nodeToBlocks.entrySet().iterator();
>          iter.hasNext();) {
>        Map.Entry<String, List<OneBlockInfo>> one = iter.next();
>       nodes.add(one.getKey());
>       List<OneBlockInfo> blocksInNode = one.getValue();
>       // for each block, copy it into validBlocks. Delete it from
>       // blockToNodes so that the same block does not appear in
>       // two different splits.
>       for (OneBlockInfo oneblock : blocksInNode) {
>         if (blockToNodes.containsKey(oneblock)) {
>           validBlocks.add(oneblock);
>           blockToNodes.remove(oneblock);
>           curSplitSize += oneblock.length;
>           // if the accumulated split size exceeds the maximum, then
>           // create this split.
>           if (maxSize != 0 && curSplitSize >= maxSize) {
>             // create an input split and add it to the splits array
>             addCreatedSplit(splits, nodes, validBlocks);
>             curSplitSize = 0;
>             validBlocks.clear();
>           }
>         }
>       }
> {code}
> First node in the map nodeToBlocks has all the replicas of input file, so the above code creates 6 splits all with only one location. Now if JT doesn't schedule these tasks on that node, all the tasks will be rack-local, even though all the other datanodes have all the other replicas.
