I'm setting the memory into the hadoop-env.sh file using: export HADOOP_HEAPSIZE=1024 I think that's fine for the datanodes, but does it mean also each task traker, job tracker and name node will take 1G? So 2GB to 4GB on each server? (1 NN+JB+DN+TT and 7 DN+TT) Or it will be 1GB in total? And if we say 1GB for the DN, how much should we reserved for the other deamons? I want to make sure I give the maximum I can give to HBase without starving Hadoop... JM 2013/1/27, Kevin O'dell <kevin.od...@cloudera.com>: > JM, > > That is probably correct.
