2008-01-08 08:36:20,045 ERROR org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DataNode: org.apache.hadoop.dfs.InconsistentFSStateException: Directory /var/hadoop/tmp/dfs/data is in an inconsistent state: file VERSION is invalid.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] data]# ssh hadoop003.sf2p cat /var/hadoop/tmp/dfs/data/current/VERSION [EMAIL PROTECTED] data]# any idea why the VERSION file is empty? and how can i regenerate it - or ask the system to generate a new one without discarding all the blocks? i had previously shutdown and started dfs once (to debug a different bug where it's not honoring du.reserved. more on that later). help appreciated, Joydeep
