Devaraj K commented on HDFS-1594: --------------------------------- When the disk becomes full, name node file system (fsimage, edits) is getting corrupted and also name node is getting shutdown. When we try to restart, name node is not starting because the name node file system is corrupted. This can be avoided this way, We can implement a daemon to monitor the disk usage for periodically and if the disk usage reaches the threshold value, put the name node into Safe mode so that no modification to file system will occur. Once the disk usage reaches below the threshold, name node will be put out of the safe mode. > When the disk becomes full Namenode is getting shutdown and not able recover > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-1594 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1594 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Environment: Linux linux124 2.6.27.19-5-default #1 SMP 2009-02-28 > 04:40:21 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux > Reporter: Devaraj K > Attachments: hadoop-root-namenode-linux124.log > > > When the disk becomes full name node is shutting down and if we try to start > after making the space available It is not starting and throwing the below > exception. > {code:xml} > 2011-01-24 23:23:33,727 ERROR > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem: FSNamesystem > initialization failed. > java.io.EOFException > at java.io.DataInputStream.readFully(DataInputStream.java:180) > at org.apache.hadoop.io.UTF8.readFields(UTF8.java:117) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImageSerialization.readString(FSImageSerialization.java:201) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLogLoader.loadEditRecords(FSEditLogLoader.java:185) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLogLoader.loadFSEdits(FSEditLogLoader.java:93) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLogLoader.loadFSEdits(FSEditLogLoader.java:60) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage.loadFSEdits(FSImage.java:1089) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage.loadFSImage(FSImage.java:1041) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage.recoverTransitionRead(FSImage.java:487) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSDirectory.loadFSImage(FSDirectory.java:149) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem.initialize(FSNamesystem.java:306) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem.<init>(FSNamesystem.java:284) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.loadNamesystem(NameNode.java:328) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.initialize(NameNode.java:356) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.<init>(NameNode.java:577) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.<init>(NameNode.java:570) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.createNameNode(NameNode.java:1529) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.main(NameNode.java:1538) > 2011-01-24 23:23:33,729 ERROR > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode: java.io.EOFException > at java.io.DataInputStream.readFully(DataInputStream.java:180) > at org.apache.hadoop.io.UTF8.readFields(UTF8.java:117) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImageSerialization.readString(FSImageSerialization.java:201) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLogLoader.loadEditRecords(FSEditLogLoader.java:185) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLogLoader.loadFSEdits(FSEditLogLoader.java:93) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLogLoader.loadFSEdits(FSEditLogLoader.java:60) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage.loadFSEdits(FSImage.java:1089) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage.loadFSImage(FSImage.java:1041) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage.recoverTransitionRead(FSImage.java:487) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSDirectory.loadFSImage(FSDirectory.java:149) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem.initialize(FSNamesystem.java:306) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem.<init>(FSNamesystem.java:284) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.loadNamesystem(NameNode.java:328) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.initialize(NameNode.java:356) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.<init>(NameNode.java:577) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.<init>(NameNode.java:570) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.createNameNode(NameNode.java:1529) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode.main(NameNode.java:1538) > 2011-01-24 23:23:33,730 INFO org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode: > SHUTDOWN_MSG: > /************************************************************ > SHUTDOWN_MSG: Shutting down NameNode at linux124/10.18.52.124 > ************************************************************/ > {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
