Liu Shaohui created HBASE-14247: ----------------------------------- Summary: Separate the old WALs into different regionserver directories Key: HBASE-14247 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14247 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Liu Shaohui Assignee: Liu Shaohui Priority: Minor
Currently all old WALs of regionservers are achieved into the single directory of oldWALs. In big clusters, because of long TTL of WAL or disabled replications, the number of files under oldWALs may reach the max-directory-items limit of HDFS, which will make the hbase cluster crashed. ``` Caused by: org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException(org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.protocol.FSLimitException$MaxDirectoryItemsExceededException): The directory item limit of /hbase/lgprc-xiaomi/.oldlogs is exceeded: limit=1048576 items=1048576 ``` A simple solution is to separate the old WALs into different directories according to the server name of the WAL. Suggestions are welcomed~ Thanks -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
