He Yongqiang commented on HADOOP-5945: -------------------------------------- >>The big issue is what do you gain by running >1 TT and DN per node, except on >>testing, where you want to give the master nodes more of a workload? Talked with one friend. And he said hdfs is used in the production environment as a catoon video store. And only one datanode server per node can not fully utilize the node's resources. >>virtual machines Good suggestions. One datanode server per vm, i guess it need special care to avoid all replicas of one file block be put on the same physical machine. I think letting mutiple tasktrackers running on a same node is not a good desicion due to the memory problem. But if only the hdfs is used, why not supporting multiple datanodes on a single node? >>DataNodeCluster Hairong, thanks. I will try it. Agreed with Jakob, we should put it in the documentation. But it seems DataNodeCluster is only used for test? > 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.
