Todd Lipcon created HDFS-4182: --------------------------------- Summary: SecondaryNameNode leaks NameCache entries Key: HDFS-4182 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4182 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: name-node Affects Versions: 2.0.2-alpha, 0.23.4, 3.0.0 Reporter: Todd Lipcon Priority: Critical
We recently saw an issue where a 2NN ran out of memory, even though it had a relatively small fsimage. When we looked at the heap dump, we saw that all of the memory had gone to entries in the NameCache. It appears that the NameCache is staying in "initializing" mode forever, and therefore a long running 2NN leaks entries. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
