He Yongqiang commented on HADOOP-5945: -------------------------------------- Yeah. I often do that too. But everytime i start the datanode/tasktracker manually. And let that unoffical instances hb the master instance to add them in. So we can let the start script start multiple slave instances. >>Are you meaning to do this on production machines? why this can not be done on production machines? > Support running multiple DataNodes/TaskTrackers simultaneously in a single > node > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5945 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5945 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: He Yongqiang > > We should support multiple datanodes/tasktrackers running at a same node, > only if they do not share same port/local fs dir etc. I think Hadoop can be > easily adapted to meet this. > I guess at first and the major step is that we should modify the script to > let it support startting multiple datanode/tasktracker daemons in a same node. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
