All,
Is it possible to consolidate two small data volumes (500GB each) into a
larger data volume (3TB)?
I'm thinking that as long as the block file names and metadata are
unique, then I should be able to shut down the datanode and use
something like tar or rsync to copy the contents of each
yes, you can.
stop the cluster,
change your hdfs-site.xml on your datanode. (dfs.datanode.dir) to the large
volume.
copy two small data volumes to the large volumes, which was configured on
above.
start cluster.
then you are done.
