Siyao Meng commented on HDFS-14491: ----------------------------------- Also as shown in your snippet of *InvalidateBlocks#add*, this operation should be performed for *each* datanode that has the replica. Hence the *PendingDeletionBlocks* metric does include all replicas/EC strips. > More Clarity on Namenode UI Around Blocks and Replicas > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-14491 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-14491 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Alan Jackoway > Assignee: Siyao Meng > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HDFS-14491.001.patch > > > I recently deleted more than 1/3 of the files in my HDFS installation. During > the process of the delete, I noticed that the NameNode UI near the top has a > line like this: > {quote}44,031,342 files and directories, 38,988,775 blocks = 83,020,117 total > filesystem object(s). > {quote} > Then lower down had a line like this: > {quote}Number of Blocks Pending Deletion 40000000 > {quote} > That made it appear that I was deleting more blocks than exist in the > cluster. When that number was below the total number of blocks, I briefly > believed I had deleted the entire cluster. In reality, the second number > includes replicas, while the first does not. > The UI should be clarified to indicate where "Blocks" includes replicas and > where it doesn't. This may also have an impact on the under-replicated count. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.14#76016) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
