Jinghui Wang created HDFS-5280:
----------------------------------
Summary: Corrupted meta files on data nodes prevents DFClient from
connecting to data nodes and updating corruption status to name node.
Key: HDFS-5280
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5280
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: datanode, hdfs-client
Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha, 2.1.0-beta, 1.1.1
Environment: Red hat enterprise 6.4
Hadoop-2.1.0
Reporter: Jinghui Wang
Meta files being corrupted causes the DFSClient not able to connect to the
datanodes to access the blocks, so DFSClient never perform a read on the block,
which is what throws the ChecksumException when file blocks are corrupted and
report to the namenode to mark the block as corrupt. Since the client never
got to that far, thus the file status remain as healthy and so are all the
blocks.
To replicate the error, put a file onto HDFS.
run hadoop fsck /tmp/bogus.csv -files -blocks -location will get that following
output.
FSCK started for path /tmp/bogus.csv at 11:33:29
/tmp/bogus.csv 109 bytes, 1 block(s): OK
0. blk_-4255166695856420554_5292 len=109 repl=3
find the block/meta files for 4255166695856420554 by running
ssh datanode1.address find /hadoop/ -name "*4255166695856420554*" and it will
get the following output:
/hadoop/data1/hdfs/current/subdir2/blk_-4255166695856420554
/hadoop/data1/hdfs/current/subdir2/blk_-4255166695856420554_5292.meta
now corrupt the meta file by running
ssh datanode1.address "sed -i -e '1i 1234567891'
/hadoop/data1/hdfs/current/subdir2/blk_-4255166695856420554_5292.meta"
now run hadoop fs -cat /tmp/bogus.csv
will show the stack trace of DFSClient failing to connect to the data node with
the corrupted meta file.
