Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-6766.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Cannot Reproduce
> Spill can fail with bad call to Random

> Key: HADOOP-6766
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6766
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.20.2
> Reporter: Peter Arthur Ciccolo
> Priority: Minor

> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: n must be positive

> confChanged assumes that the list of dirs it creates
> (LocalDirAllocator.java:215) has at least one element in it by the end of the
> function. If, for each local dir, either the conditional on line 221 is
> false, or the call to DiskChecker.checkDir() throws an exception, this
> assumption will not hold. In this case, dirIndexRandomizer.nextInt() is
> called on the number of elements in dirs, which is 0. Since
> dirIndexRandomizer (195) is an instance of Random(), it needs a positive
> (non-zero) argument to nextInt().
