SocketTimeoutException: timeout while waiting for channel to be ready for read ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-770 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-770 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: contrib/libhdfs, data-node, hdfs client, name-node Affects Versions: 0.20.1 Environment: Ubuntu Linux 8.04 Reporter: Leon Mergen Attachments: client.txt, datanode.txt, namenode.txt We're having issues with timeouts occurring in our client: for some reason, a timeout of 63000 milliseconds is triggered while writing HDFS data. Since we currently have a single-server setup, this results in our client terminating with a "All datanodes are bad" IOException. We're running all services, including the client, on our single server, so it cannot be a network error. The load on the client is extremely low during this period: only a few kilobytes a minute were being written around the time the error occured. After browsing a bit online, a lot of people talk about setting "dfs.datanode.socket.write.timeout" to 0 as a solution for this problem. Due to the low load of our system during this period, however, I do feel this is a real error and a timeout that should not be occurring. I have attached 3 logs of the namenode, datanode and client. It could be that this is related to http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-693 Any pointers on how I can assist to resolve this issue will be greatly appreciated. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
