If you don't want to wait then you can do bin/hadoop dfsadmin -safemode leave. And this might be useful for reference. -safemode : Safe mode maintenance command. Safe mode is a Namenode state in which it 1. does not accept changes to the name space (read-only)

There's a bit of an issue if you have no data in your HDFS -- 0 blocks out of 0 is considered 100% reported, so NN leaves safe mode even if there are no DNs talking to it yet. For a fix, please see HDFS-528, included in Cloudera's CDH2. Thanks -Todd On Fri, Mar 19, 2010 at 10:29 AM, Bill Haber

At startup, the namenode goes into 'safe' mode to wait for all data nodes to send block reports on data they are holding. This is normal for hadoop and necessary to make sure all replicated data is accounted for across the cluster. It is the nature of the beast to work this way for good reasons.

Why must I wait for NameNode?

2010-03-19 Thread Nick Klosterman
What is the namemode doing upon startup? I have to wait about 1 minute and watch for the namenode dfs usage drop from 100% otherwise the install is unusable. Is this typical? Is something wrong with my install? I've been attempting the Pseudo distributed tutorial example for a while trying to

Hi Utku, hiho currently works only with MySQL. It works with Hadoop 0.20. It uses features in the MySQL Connector J to load data parallelly to the database through multiple map tasks. The number of tasks are determined based on the number of files you wish to load to the database. The current rele

Thank you both Aaron and Sonal for your precious comments and contributions. I'll check both the projects and try to make a design decision. I'm familiar with the sqoop and just heard about hiho. Sonal: I guess what hiho is a single map/reduce job handling the MySQL hadoop Integration. Is it als
