Hudson commented on YARN-202: ----------------------------- Integrated in Hadoop-Yarn-trunk #29 (See [https://builds.apache.org/job/Hadoop-Yarn-trunk/29/]) YARN-202. Log Aggregation generates a storm of fsync() for namenode (Kihwal Lee via bobby) (Revision 1406269) Result = SUCCESS bobby : http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/?root=Apache-SVN&view=rev&rev=1406269 Files : * /hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-yarn-project/CHANGES.txt * /hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-yarn-project/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/yarn/logaggregation/AggregatedLogFormat.java > Log Aggregation generates a storm of fsync() for namenode > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-202 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-202 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.2-alpha, 0.23.4 > Reporter: Kihwal Lee > Assignee: Kihwal Lee > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 3.0.0, 2.0.3-alpha, 0.23.5 > > Attachments: yarn-202.patch > > > When the log aggregation is on, write to each aggregated container log causes > hflush() to be called. For large clusters, this can creates a lot of fsync() > calls for namenode. > We have seen 6-7x increase in the average number of fsync operations compared > to 1.0.x on a large busy cluster. Over 99% of fsync ops were for log > aggregation writing to tmp files. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
