I am using HDP 2.1. for the cluster. I've encountered below exception and the MapReduce jobs have been failed because of that. Actually, we regularly create tables using the data from Flume which is ver. 1.4. and I checked the data files which mapper tried to read but I couldn't find anything on that.

If you have some idea or solutions for the problem, please share for me....
Thank you kwangwoo
Here is a good description of the problem and its cause:
https://community.hortonworks.com/answers/37414/view.html
For us running the command hdfs debug recoverLease -path <path-of-the-file> -retries 3 solved the problem.
It is very hard to determine if the file in any HDFS folder is unclosed or not. You probably have to do a hdfs cat test on them. Or you can regularly check for lost file blocks (every hour or after every restart of cluster).

I got the same issue with you. There are some files that opened by flume but never closed (I am not sure about the reason). You need to find the name of them by the command:
hdfs fsck /directory/of/locked/files/ -files -openforwrite
Then just removing them.
Or you can try to recover files as command hdfs debug recoverLease -path <path-of-the-file> -retries 3 that Joe23 suggested.
