[jira] [Resolved] (MAPREDUCE-3011) TT should remove bad local dirs from conf to prevent constant disk checking

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3011?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eli Collins resolved MAPREDUCE-3011.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

You're right, I missed that we're always updating the conf the job is launched with the latest known good dirs in TT#launchTaskForJob.  Thanks for the explanation.  I verified we weren't missing other locations by failing a local dir, logging in the confChanged case and verifying that we only notice the change once.

> Per HADOOP-7551 the TT does not remove bad mapred.local.dirs from the conf so after a single disk failure *every* call to get a local path for reading or writing results in a disk check of *all* configured local dirs. After detecting that a local dir is bad we should remove it from the conf so that we don't repeatedly perform this expensive operation.
