Work on HDFS-13818 started by Adam Antal. ----------------------------------------- > Extend OIV to detect FSImage corruption > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-13818 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13818 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: hdfs > Reporter: Adam Antal > Assignee: Adam Antal > Priority: Major > > A follow-up Jira for HDFS-13031: an improvement of the OIV is suggested for > detecting corruptions like HDFS-13101 in an offline way. > The reasoning is the following. Apart from a NN startup throwing the error, > there is nothing in the customer's hand that could reassure him/her that the > FSImages is good or corrupted. > Although real full checking of the FSImage is only possible by the NN, for > stack traces associated with the observed corruption cases the solution of > putting up a tertiary NN is a little bit of overkill. The OIV would be a > handy choice, already having functionality like loading the fsimage and > constructing the folder structure, we just have to add the option of > detecting the null INodes. For e.g. the Delimited OIV processor can already > use in disk MetadataMap, which reduces memory consumption. Also there may be > a window for parallelizing: iterating through INodes for e.g. could be done > distributed, increasing efficiency, and we wouldn't need a high mem-high CPU > setup for just checking the FSImage. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
