Robert Chansler commented on HADOOP-3989: ----------------------------------------- And notice of each failure must be show in the server logs. (0.18 hides some IOExceptions at the "debug" level of reporting.) > Secondary Namenode: Limit number of retries when fsimage/edits transfer fails > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-3989 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3989 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs > Reporter: Koji Noguchi > Priority: Minor > > When hitting HADOOP-3980, secondary namenode kept on pulling gigs of > fsimage/edits every 10 minutes which slowed down the namenode significantly. > When namenode is down, I'd like the secondary namenode to keep on retrying > to connect. However, when pull/push of large files keep on failing, I'd like > a upper limit on the number of retries. Either shutdown or sleep for > _fs.checkpoint.period_ seconds. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
