parameter to control number of retries

Hi,

I am looking for a parameter to control number of retries for failed task.

Can anybody point me to the right direction?

Thanks
Serge

Sure, tweak mapred.map.max.attempts or mapred.reduce.max.attempts in
your job to set the maximum number of failed task retries for map and
reduce tasks of a job respectively. Both default to 4.
