Thanks. Another Question: During decommissioning process, does HDFS strictly copy blocks/files from the decommissioned node to the other live nodes? Or do blocks get copied from other live nodes too?
i.e., is the source of transfers always the node being decommissioned? -Harold --- On Tue, 9/15/09, Dhruba Borthakur <dhr...@gmail.com> wrote: > From: Dhruba Borthakur <dhr...@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: Question about decommissioning a node > To: hdfs-user@hadoop.apache.org > Date: Tuesday, September 15, 2009, 5:03 PM > This might help: > > http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/FAQ#17 > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-681 > > > Bandwidth can be throttled on a datanode via > dfs.balance.bandwidthPerSec > > thanks, > dhruba > > > On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 1:55 PM, > Harold Lim <rold...@yahoo.com> > wrote: > > Hi All, > > > > Is there a document or can anyone explain to me what > actually happens during the decommissioning process?
