[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-4292) Job is hanging forever when some maps are failing always

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4292?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13285476#comment-13285476 ] 

Harsh J commented on MAPREDUCE-4292:
------------------------------------

What exactly was the failed map's cause? Did the job not fail after 4x map fails? (Note: Reducers may fail and retrigger maps if they can't get its outputs in good time.)

Logs of the MR AM would be good to have.

> Set property "mapred.reduce.tasks" to some value greater than zero
> I have a job in which some maps are failing always. 
> Observations:
> 1.Map phase is completing with 100%(with succeeded and failed maps). 
> 2.Reduce phase is not progressing further after 32%.
> 3.After map phase is completed job is hanging forever.
> Expected that job should be failed after waiting for some time.
