Vinayakumar B created HDFS-6114: ----------------------------------- Summary: Block Scan log rolling will never happen if blocks written continuously leading to huge size of dncp_block_verification.log.curr Key: HDFS-6114 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6114 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: datanode Affects Versions: 2.3.0 Reporter: Vinayakumar B Assignee: Vinayakumar B Priority: Critical
1. {{BlockPoolSliceScanner#scan()}} will not return until all the blocks are scanned. 2. If the blocks (with size in several MBs) to datanode are written continuously then one iteration of {{BlockPoolSliceScanner#scan()}} will be continously scanning the blocks 3. These blocks will be deleted after some time (enough to get block scanned) 4. As Block Scanning is throttled, So verification of all blocks will take so much time. 5. Rolling will never happen, so even though the total number of blocks in datanode doesn't increases, entries ( which contains stale entries of deleted blocks) in *dncp_block_verification.log.curr* continuously increases leading to huge size. In one of our env, it grown more than 1TB where total number of blocks were only ~45k. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
