Benoy Antony created HDFS-7461: ---------------------------------- Summary: Reduce impact of laggards on move Key: HDFS-7461 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7461 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Components: balancer & mover Affects Versions: 2.6.0 Reporter: Benoy Antony Assignee: Benoy Antony
The current Mover logic is as follows : {code} for (Path target : targetPaths) { hasRemaining |= processPath(target.toUri().getPath()); } // wait for pending move to finish and retry the failed migration hasRemaining |= Dispatcher.waitForMoveCompletion(storages.targets.values()); {code} The processPath will schedule moves, but it is bounded by the number of concurrent moves (default is 5 per node} . Once block moves are scheduled, it will wait for ALL scheduled moves to finish. One slow move could keep the Mover idle for a long time. It will be a performance improvement to schedule the moves as soon as any {source , target} slot is available instead f waiting for all the scheduled moves to finish. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
