[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-101?page=comments#action_12371653 ]
Hairong Kuang commented on HADOOP-101: -------------------------------------- The dfsck is done at the client side and hence does not lock the file system. It has a potential inconsitency problem. What if a client deletes a directory when tool is checking it? Another concern is the performance. The tool needs to issue a RPC to the namenode for each dir/file in the system. Any benchmark? > DFSck - fsck-like utility for checking DFS volumes > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-101 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-101 > Project: Hadoop > Type: New Feature > Components: dfs > Versions: 0.2 > Reporter: Andrzej Bialecki > Assignee: Andrzej Bialecki > Attachments: DFSck.java > > This is a utility to check health status of a DFS volume, and collect some > additional statistics. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
