Arpit Agarwal created HDFS-5448: ----------------------------------- Summary: Synchronize NN registrations across block pools Key: HDFS-5448 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5448 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Components: datanode Affects Versions: Heterogeneous Storage (HDFS-2832) Reporter: Arpit Agarwal Assignee: Arpit Agarwal
Prior to the heterogeneous storage feature, each Datanode had a single storage ID which was generated by the Namenode on first registration. The storage ID used fixed Datanode identifiers like IP address and port, so that in a federated cluster, for example, all NameNodes would generate the same storage ID. With Heterogeneous storage, we have replaced the storage ID with a per-datanode identifier called the Datanode-UUID. The Datanode UUID is also assigned by a NameNode on first registration. In a federated cluster with multiple namenodes, there are two ways to ensure a unique Datanode UUID allocation: # Synchronize initial registration requests from the BPServiceActors. If a Datanode UUID is already assigned we don't need to synchronize. # The datanode assigns itself a UUID on initialization. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
