Hi,
Is it possible to run multiple data nodes on a single machine? I
currently have a machine with multiple disks and enough disk capacity
for replication across them. I don't need redundancy at the machine
level but would like to be able to handle a single disk failure.
So I was thinking if I can run multiple DataNodes on a single machine
each assigned a separate disk that would give me the protection I need
against disk failure.
Can anyone give me any insights in to how I would setup multiple
DataNodes to run on a single machine? Thanks in advance,
Cheers Arv
I guess you *could*, but it doesn't seem to me it would make much sense
in a production environment, since the 2 data nodes running on the
machine would be competing with each other for CPU usage, network
bandwidth, etc.
