Kihwal Lee created HDFS-11714: --------------------------------- Summary: Newly added NN storage directory won't get initialized and cause space exhaustion Key: HDFS-11714 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11714 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.7.3 Reporter: Kihwal Lee Priority: Critical
When an empty namenode storage directory is detected on normal NN startup, it may not be fully initialized. The new directory is still part of "in-service" NNStrage and when a checkpoint image is uploaded, a copy will also be written there. However, the retention manager won't be able to purge old files since it is lacking a VERSION file. This causes fsimages to pile up in the directory. With a big name space, the disk will be filled in the order of days or weeks. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
