Thus, it is theoretically possible that even though the NN actually wrote out everything to disk and the machine rebooted, some data in any of the fstime/edits/fsimage could be missing. I think we should issue a fsync() on all these files before closing them. > Namenode unable to start due to truncated fstime > > > Key: HDFS-1220 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1220 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node >Affects Versions: 0.20.1 >Reporter: Thanh Do > > - Summary: updating fstime file on disk is not atomic, so it is possible that > if a crash happens in the middle, next time when NameNode reboots, it will > read stale fstime, hence unable to start successfully. > > - Details: > Basically, this involve 3 steps: > 1) delete fstime file (timeFile.delete()) > 2) truncate fstime file (new FileOutputStream(timeFile)) > 3) write new time to fstime file (out.writeLong(checkpointTime)) > If a crash happens after step 2 and before step 3, in the next reboot, > NameNode > got an exception when reading the time (8 byte) from an empty fstime file. > This bug was found by our Failure Testing Service framework: > http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2010/EECS-2010-98.html > For questions, please email us: Thanh Do (than...@cs.wisc.edu) and > Haryadi Gunawi (hary...@eecs.berkeley.edu -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

We first write everything (fsimage, edits, fstime, and VERSION) into a separate directory. If everything is done successfully then this directory will be used as a startup point by the NN. If not the old directory is still present and NN will recover it and start from the previous image.

In this case, i think the update to fstime should be atomic, or NameNode some how should anticipate reading an empty fstime. > Namenode unable to start due to truncated fstime > > > Key: HDFS-1220 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1220 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node >Affects Versions: 0.20.1 >Reporter: Thanh Do > > - Summary: updating fstime file on disk is not atomic, so it is possible that > if a crash happens in the middle, next time when NameNode reboots, it will > read stale fstime, hence unable to start successfully. > > - Details: > Basically, this involve 3 steps: > 1) delete fstime file (timeFile.delete()) > 2) truncate fstime file (new FileOutputStream(timeFile)) > 3) write new time to fstime file (out.writeLong(checkpointTime)) > If a crash happens after step 2 and before step 3, in the next reboot, > NameNode > got an exception when reading the time (8 byte) from an empty fstime file. > This bug was found by our Failure Testing Service framework: > http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2010/EECS-2010-98.html > For questions, please email us: Thanh Do (than...@cs.wisc.edu) and > Haryadi Gunawi (hary...@eecs.berkeley.edu -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
