[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-3713) broken symlinks in jobcache when local tasks are done but job is in progress

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3713?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12611900#action_12611900 ] 

Amareshwari Sriramadasu commented on HADOOP-3713:
-------------------------------------------------

On branch 0.17, when a task gets a KILLTASKACTION and the tasktracker doesnt have anymore tasks running for that job, the job is removed from runningJobs data structure. So, when it gets a task for that job again, it does localize again, which is causing the Mkdirs to fail, because the job directory is not cleanedup properly. HADOOP-3370 has fixed the problem on 0.18.

I think HADOOP-3370 should be also be applied for 0.17. That will solve this issue.
Still, there could be garbage left on the jobcache, which is addressed by HADOOP-3386.
