So I'm running a pretty basic (just a search for a simple expression) program via Hadoop streaming on my 3-node cluster. When I run the job, JobTracker informs me that only 6 maps and 6 reduces are running, with 2000 pending map and reduce jobs. Why is this happening? I have set the maximum number of mappers and reducers (60, 20 per node) in my conf/mapred-site.xml file. What do you suggest to solve this issue?
