Work on HDFS-14894 started by Leon Gao. --------------------------------------- > Add balancer parameter to balance top used nodes > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-14894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-14894 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: balancer & mover > Reporter: Leon Gao > Assignee: Leon Gao > Priority: Major > > We sometimes see a few of our datanodes reach very high usage (due to various > reasons) and we need to reduce their usage in an urgent situation. > We see two ways to achieve it currently, > -Calculate and reset balancing threshold. > -Pick nodes manually according to usage stats and put them in a file and use > `-resource` flag. > However, both of them are not very intuitive or too much manual work in an > urgent close-to-outage situation. Add a small feature to automatically pick > top used hosts will be a straightforward option, for example > `-sourceThreshold 95` to only target datanodes with >95% usage. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
