Gergely Novák commented on HDFS-11034: -------------------------------------- I'm new here. [~cnauroth] could you please explain to me the difference between this expected new dfsadmin command and removing the decommissioned datanode(s) from the {{dfs.hosts}} file and executing {{hdfs dfsadmin -refreshNodes}}? Thank you. > Provide a command line tool to clear decommissioned DataNode information from > the NameNode without restarting. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-11034 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11034 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: namenode > Reporter: Chris Nauroth > Assignee: Gergely Novák > > Information about decommissioned DataNodes remains tracked in the NameNode > for the entire NameNode process lifetime. Currently, the only way to clear > this information is to restart the NameNode. This issue proposes to add a > way to clear this information online, without requiring a process restart. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
