David Mollitor commented on HDFS-13157: --------------------------------------- Note to self: I am confusing myself. This issue has to do with replicating blocks off the DataNode, not issuing deletes to the DataNode. > Do Not Remove Blocks Sequentially During Decommission > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-13157 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13157 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: datanode, namenode > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: David Mollitor > Assignee: David Mollitor > Priority: Major > > From what I understand of [DataNode > decommissioning|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/42a1c98597e6dba2e371510a6b2b6b1fb94e4090/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/blockmanagement/DatanodeAdminManager.java] > it appears that all the blocks are scheduled for removal _in order._. I'm > not 100% sure what the ordering is exactly, but I think it loops through each > data volume and schedules each block to be replicated elsewhere. The net > affect is that during a decommission, all of the DataNode transfer threads > slam on a single volume until it is cleaned out. At which point, they all > slam on the next volume, etc. > Please randomize the block list so that there is a more even distribution > across all volumes when decommissioning a node. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.2#803003) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
