Re: Are hadoop fs commands serial or parallel
What do you mean clunky? IMHO this is a quite elegant, simple, working solution. Sure this spawns multiple processes, but it beats any api-overcomplications, imho.

Why Only 1 Reducer is running ??
Hello everyone, I am using wordcount application to test on my hadoop cluster of 5 nodes. The file size is around 5 GB. Its taking around 2 min - 40 sec for execution. But when I am checking the JobTracker web portal, I am seeing only one reducer is running. Why so ?? How can I change the code so that I will run multiple reducers also ?? Thanks, Praveenesh

Re: Why Only 1 Reducer is running ??
I am using the wordcount example that comes along with hadoop. How can I configure it to make it use multiple reducers. I guess mutiple reducers will make it run more fast .. Does it ??

Re: Why Only 1 Reducer is running ??
what does your mapred-site.xml file say? I've used wordcount and had close to 12 reduces running on a 6 datanode cluster on a 3 GB file. I have a configuration in there which says: mapred.reduce.tasks = 12 The reason I chose 12 was because it was recommended that I choose 2x number of tasktrackers.

Re: Why Only 1 Reducer is running ??
Hi, My mapred-site.xml is pretty simple. mapred.job.tracker ub13:54311 The host and port that the MapReduce job tracker runs at. If "local", then jobs are run in-process as a single map and reduce task. where I should put the settings that you are saying ??

RE: Why Only 1 Reducer is running ??
Hi Praveenesh, * You can set the maximum amount of reducers per node in your mapred-site.xml using mapred.tasktracker.reduce.tasks.maximum (default set to 2). * You can set the default number of reduce tasks with mapred.reduce.tasks (default set to 1 - this causes your single reducer). * Your job can try to override this setting by calling Job.setNumReduceTasks(INT) (http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/mapreduce/Job.html#setNumReduceTasks(int)).

What's the easiest way to count the number of pairs in a directory?
I've got a directory with a bunch of MapReduce data in it. I want to know how many pairs it contains. I could write a mapper-only process that takes pairs as input and updates a counter, but it seems like this utility should already exist. Does it, or do I have to roll my own? Bonus question, is there a way to count the number of pairs without deserializing the values? This can be expensive for the data I'm working with.
Can I number output results with a Counter?
Hi, can I use a Counter to give each record in all reducers a consecutive number? Currently I am using a single Reducer, but it is an anti-pattern. But I need to assign consecutive numbers to all output records in all reducers, and it does not matter how, as long as each gets its own number. If it IS possible, then how are multiple processes accessing those counters without creating race conditions. Thank you, Mark
Re: What's the easiest way to count the number of pairs in a directory?
What format is the input data in? At first glance, I would run an identity mapper and use a NullOutputFormat so you don't get any data written. The built in counters already count the number of key, value pairs read in by the mappers. -Joey On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 9:34 AM, W.P.

Re: What's the easiest way to count the number of pairs in a directory?
The cheapest way would be to check the counters as you write them in the first place and keep a running score. :) Sent from my mobile. Please excuse the typos. On 2011-05-20, at 10:35 AM, "W.P.

Re: Can I number output results with a Counter?
To make sure I understand you correctly, you need a globally unique one up counter for each output record? If you had an upper bound on the number of records a single reducer could output and you can afford to have gaps, you could just use the task id and multiply that by the max number of records and then one up from there. If that doesn't work for you, then you'll need to use some kind of central service for allocating numbers which could become a bottleneck. -Joey On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 9:55 AM, Mark Kerzner wrote: > Hi, can I use a Counter to give each record in all reducers a consecutive > number?

Re: Can I number output results with a Counter?
Joey, You understood me perfectly well. I see your first advice, but I am not allowed to have gaps. A central service is something I may consider if single reducer becomes a worse bottleneck than it. But what are counters for? They seem to be exactly that.

Re: What's the easiest way to count the number of pairs in a directory?
The keys are Text and the values are large custom data structures serialized with Avro. I also have counters for the job that generates these files that gives me this information but sometimes...Well, it's a long story. Suffice to say that it's nice to have a post-hoc method too. :-) The identity mapper sounds like the way to go.
Re: Can I number output results with a Counter?
Counters are a way to get status from your running job. They don't increment a global state. They locally save increments and periodically report those increments to the central counter. That means that the final count will be correct, but you can't use them to coordinate counts while your job is running. -Joey On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 10:17 AM, Mark Kerzner wrote: > Joey, > > You understood me perfectly well.

No.
Re: Can I number output results with a Counter?
Also, with speculative execution enabled, you might see a higher count as you expect while the same task is running multiple times in parallel. When a task gets killed because another instance was quicker, those counters will be removed from the global count though.

Thank you, Kai and Joey, for the explanation. That's what I thought about them, but did not want to miss the "magical" replacement for a central services in the counters.

Using df instead of du to calculate datanode space
I came up with a nice little hack to trick hadoop into calculating disk usage with df instead of du http://allthingshadoop.com/2011/05/20/faster-datanodes-with-less-wait-io-using-df-instead-of-du/ I am running this in production, works like a charm and already seeing benefit, woot! I hope it works well for others too. /* Joe Stein http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop */
Re: Applications creates bigger output than input?
Thanks Robert, Niels Ye, I think text manipulation, especially ngram is a good application for me.

How to see block information on NameNode ?
hey..!! I have a question. If I copy some file on HDFS file system, it will get split into blocks and Namenode will keep all these meta info with it. How can I see that info. I copied 5 GB file on NameNode, but I see that file only on the NameNode.. It doesnot get split into blocks..?? How can I see whether my file is getting split into blocks and which data node is keeping which block ?? Thanks, Praveenesh
