Allen Wittenauer commented on MAPREDUCE-1468: --------------------------------------------- FWIW, a lot of this is upgrade process too. One of the best practices is to take a snapshot of dfs and jt info to make sure that the node counts and lists matches pre/post upgrade. Following this, it is fairly clear whether nodes failed to upgrade properly. > Too many log messages generated if a node has a different Hadoop version > installed > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1468 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1468 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.20.1 > Reporter: Qi Liu > > When upgrading or downgrading Hadoop, for a large cluster it is possible that > some nodes are not upgraded/downgraded. In this case, the jobtracker and > namenode generates gigabytes of logs each day, reporting protocol version > mismatch. Such log message is generated once every 3ms. > Ideally, the misbehaved node should quit retrying after several attempts if > there is a protocol version mismatch. At the very least, the log message > should be minimized (maybe once a day or once per start up). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
