    Description

      From time to time the Reducer log contains the following and one tasktracker gets blacklisted.

      org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException: org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.protocol.AlreadyBeingCreatedException: failed to create file /user/test/crawl/segments/20120316065507/parse_text/part-00001/data for DFSClient_attempt_201203151054_0028_r_000001_1 on client xx.x.xx.xx.10, because this file is already being created by DFSClient_attempt_201203151054_0028_r_000001_0 on xx.xx.xx.9

      I asked the hdfs-user mailing list and i got the following answer:

      "Looks like you have reduce speculation turned on, but the
      ParseOutputFormat you're using doesn't properly name its output files
      distinctly based on the task attempt ID. As a workaround you can
      probably turn off speculative execution for reduces, but you should
      also probably file a Nutch bug."
