I've been running hadoop-0.19.0 for several weeks successfully. Today, for the first time, I tried to run the balancer, and I'm receiving:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Not a host:port pair: hvcwydev0601 In my hadoop-site.xml, I have this: <property> <name>fs.default.name</name> <value>hdfs://hvcwydev0601/</value> </property> What do I need to change to get the balancer to work? It seems I need to add a port to fs.default.name. If so, what port? Can I just pick any port? If I specify a port, do I need to specify any other parms accordingly? I searched the forum, and found a few posts on this topic, but it seems that the configuration parms have changed over time, so I'm not sure what the current correct configuration is. Also, if fs.default.name is supposed to have a port, I'll point out that the docs don't say so: http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/r0.19.1/cluster_setup.html The example given for fs.default.name is "hdfs://hostname/". Thanks!
