Konstantin Shvachko commented on HDFS-708: ------------------------------------------ Hi Wang Xu. Thanks for the link. I think people will find your scripting solution useful for testing HDFS directly without the MapReduce framework. What we want to achieve by this is to model the workload of a real cluster and test it on that load. MR is a part of testing for us. > A stress-test tool for HDFS. > ---------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-708 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-708 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: test, tools > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko > Assignee: Konstantin Shvachko > Fix For: 0.22.0 > > Attachments: SLiveTest.pdf > > > It would be good to have a tool for automatic stress testing HDFS, which > would provide IO-intensive load on HDFS cluster. > The idea is to start the tool, let it run overnight, and then be able to > analyze possible failures. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
