Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-5986: ---------------------------------- The jmx on NN already has {{PendingDeletionBlocks}} and [~wheat9] made NN webUI render on the client-side using the jmx data, so it should be relatively a simple change. Is {{PendingDeletionBlocks}} what we want, or is it something else? > Capture the number of blocks pending deletion on namenode webUI > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5986 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5986 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: namenode > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > > When a directory that has large number of directories and files are deleted, > the namespace deletes the corresponding inodes immediately. However it is > hard to to know when the invalidated blocks are actually deleted on the > datanodes, which could take a while. > I propose adding on namenode webUI, along with under replicated blocks, the > number of blocks that are pending deletion. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
