I am having a standalone setup of Apache Hadoop with Namenode and Datanode running in the same machine.
I am currently running Apache Hadoop 2.6 (I cannot upgrade it) running on Ubuntu 16.04.
Although my system is having more than 400 GB of Hard disk left but my Hadoop dashboard is showing 100%.
Why Apache Hadoop is not consuming the rest of the disk space available to it? Can anybody help me figuring out the solution.
There can be certain reasons for it.
You can try following steps:
Goto $HADOOP_HOME/bin
./hadoop-daemon.sh --config $HADOOP_HOME/conf start datanode
Then you can try the following things:-
If any directory other than your namenode and datanode directories taking up too much space, you can start cleaning up
Also you can run hadoop fs -du -s -h /user/hadoop (to see usage of the directories).
Identify all the unnecessary directories and start cleaning up by running hadoop fs -rm -R /user/hadoop/raw_data (-rm is to delete -R is to delete recursively, be careful while using -R).
Run hadoop fs -expunge (to clean up the trash immediately, some times you need to run multiple times).
Run hadoop fs -du -s -h / (it will give you hdfs usage of the entire file system or you can run dfsadmin -report as well - to confirm whether storage is reclaimed)
Many times it shows missing blocks ( with replication 1).

I'm using Windows 7 with Hadoop 2.10.1 installed as shown here: https://exitcondition.com/install-hadoop-windows/ and I get an error when running my job:
INFO mapreduce.Job:
Job job_1605374051781_0001 failed with state FAILED due to:
Application application_1605374051781_0001 failed 2 times

exitCode: -1000 Failing this attempt.Diagnostics:
[2020-11-14 18:17:54.217]No space available in any of the local directories.
The expected output is several lines of text and my disks are nowhere near full (at least 10GB free). The code is some generic mapreduce job that I cannot post here because it's the intellectual property of the university.
Any tips on how to solve the "No space available" error?
For clarification I'm using only my PC, I'm not connected to other machines.
PS: I've solved it, as said here: Hadoop map reduce example stuck on Running job by user "banu reddy" https://stackoverflow.com/users/4249076/banu-reddy the free HDD space needs to be at least 10% od the disk.
Hadoop's jobs are executed within the framework's distributed filesystem aka HDFS, which works independently from the local filesystem (even by operating in just one machine, as you clarified).
That basically means that the error you got referred to the disk space available in the HDFS and not on your hard drives in general. To check if the HDFS has enough disk space to run the job or not, you can execute the following command on the terminal:
hdfs dfs -df -h
Which can have an output like this (ignoring the warning I get on my Hadoop setup):
If the command output in your system indicates that the available disk space is low or non-existent, you can individualy delete directories from the HDFS
by firstly checking what directories and files are stored:
hadoop fs -ls
And then deleting each directory from the HDFS:
hadoop fs -rm -r name_of_the_folder
Or file from the HDFS:
hadoop fs -rm name_of_the_file
Alternatively, you can empty everything stored in the HDFS to be sure that you will not hit the disk space limit again any time soon. You can do that by stopping the YARN and HDFS daemons at first:
stop-all.sh
Then enabling only the HDFS daemon:
start-dfs.sh
Then formatting everything on the namenode (aka the HDFS in your system, not your local files of course):
hadoop namenode -format
And enabling YARN and HDFS daemons at last:
start-all.sh
Remember to re-run the hdfs dfs -df -h command after deleting stuff in the HDFS so you make sure you have free space on the HDFS.
I upgrade to the latest version of cloudera.Now I am trying to create directory in HDFS
hadoop fs -mkdir data
Am getting the following error
Cannot Create /user/cloudera/data Name Node is in SafeMode.
How can I do this?
When you start hadoop, for some time limit hadoop stays in safemode. You can either wait (you can see the time limit being decreased on Namenode web UI) until the time limit or You can turn it off with
hadoop dfsadmin -safemode leave
The above command turns off the safemode of hadoop
In addition to Ramesh Maharjan answer, By default, cloudera machine(Cloudera Quick Start#5.12) doesn't allow to SET OFF safe mode, it's required to specify the -u options as shown below:
sudo -u hdfs hdfs dfsadmin -safemode leave
For me, I was immediately using hive command to go into hive shell after starting hadoop using start-all.sh. I re-tried using hive command after waiting for 10-20 seconds.
Might need the full path to hdfs command
/usr/local/hadoop/bin/hdfs dfsadmin -safemode leave
I have fired up a Spark Cluster on Amazon EC2 containing 1 master node and 2 servant nodes that have 2.7gb of memory each
However when I tried to put a file of 3 gb on to the HDFS through the code below
/root/ephemeral-hdfs/bin/hadoop fs -put /root/spark/2GB.bin 2GB.bin
it returns the error, "/user/root/2GB.bin could only be replicated to 0 nodes, instead of 1". fyi, I am able to upload files of smaller size but not when it exceeds a certain size (about 2.2 gb).
If the file exceeds the memory size of a node, wouldn't it will be split by Hadoop to the other node?
Edit: Summary of my understanding of the issue you are facing:
1) Total HDFS free size is 5.32 GB
2) HDFS free size on each node is 2.6GB
Note: You have bad blocks (4 Blocks with corrupt replicas)
The following Q&A mentions similar issues:
Hadoop put command throws - could only be replicated to 0 nodes, instead of 1
In that case, running JPS showed that the datanode are down.
Those Q&A suggest a way to restart the data-node:
What is best way to start and stop hadoop ecosystem, with command line?
Hadoop - Restart datanode and tasktracker
Please try to restart your data-node, and let us know if it solved the problem.
When using HDFS - you have one shared file system
i.e. all nodes share the same file system
From your description - the current free space on the HDFS is about 2.2GB , while you tries to put there 3GB.
Execute the following command to get the HDFS free size:
hdfs dfs -df -h
hdfs dfsadmin -report
or (for older versions of HDFS)
hadoop fs -df -h
hadoop dfsadmin -report
I have a solr cloud (v 4.10) installation that sits on top of Cloudera (CDH 5.4.2) HDFS with 3 solr instances each hosting a shard of each core.
I am looking for a way to incrementally copy the solr data from our production cluster to our development cluster. There are 3 cores but I am only interested in copying one of them.
I have tried to use the Solr replication - backup and restore but that doesn't seem to load anything into the dev cluster.
http://host:8983/solr/core/replication?command=backup&location=/solr_transfer&name=core-name
http://host:8983/solr/core/replication?command=restore&location=/solr_transfer&name=core-name
I also tried to snapshot the /solr dir in the hdfs prod clusters and use hadoop disctp to copy the files but the solr indexer deletes some of the files so the distcp job fails.
hadoop distcp hftp://prod:50070/solr/* hdfs://dev:8020/solr/
Can anyone help me here?
please follow below steps to create snapshot of solr_hdfs folder and move the same on another cluster
1.Allow snapshot
sudo -u hdfs hadoop dfsadmin -allowSnapshot /user/solr/SolrCollectionName
2.Create snapshot with a specific name
sudo -u hdfs hadoop dfs -createSnapshot /user/solr/SolrCollectionName/ snapshotName
3. To list to snapshot directory
hdfs dfs -ls /user/solr/solrcollectionName/.snapshot
4. To copy, execute below command
sudo -u solr hadoop distcp hdfs://NNIP1:8020/user/solr/collectionName/.snapshot/SanpshotName hdfs://NNIP2:8020/user/solr
5. To restore snapshot
sudo -u solr hadoop fs -cp /user/solr/SanpshotName/* /user/solr/SolrcollectionName/
After a lot of trying this is the solution we worked out.
- Initialise solr in the second environment with all the collections in the same way as the primary.
- Take a snapshot of HDFS
- Use hadoop hdfs -cp to copy the data up to the checkpoint
After the first run the copy job will be quick as you are only copying the increments.
I am a student, interested in Hadoop and started to explore it recently.
I tried adding an additional DataNode in the pseudo-distributed mode but failed.
I am following the Yahoo developer tutorial and so the version of Hadoop I am using is hadoop-0.18.0
I tried to start up using 2 methods I found online:
Method 1 (link)
I have a problem with this line
bin/hadoop-daemon.sh --script bin/hdfs $1 datanode $DN_CONF_OPTS
--script bin/hdfs doesn't seem to be valid in the version I am using. I changed it to --config $HADOOP_HOME/conf2 with all the configuration files in that directory, but when the script is ran it gave the error:
Usage: Java DataNode [-rollback]
Any idea what does the error mean? The log files are created but DataNode did not start.
Method 2 (link)
Basically I duplicated conf folder to conf2 folder, making necessary changes documented on the website to hadoop-site.xml and hadoop-env.sh. then I ran the command
./hadoop-daemon.sh --config ..../conf2 start datanode
it gives the error:
datanode running as process 4190. stop it first.
So I guess this is the 1st DataNode that was started, and the command failed to start another DataNode.
Is there anything I can do to start additional DataNode in the Yahoo VM Hadoop environment? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hadoop start/stop scripts use /tmp as a default directory for storing PIDs of already started daemons. In your situation, when you start second datanode, startup script finds /tmp/hadoop-someuser-datanode.pid file from the first datanode and assumes that the datanode daemon is already started.
The plain solution is to set HADOOP_PID_DIR env variable to something else (but not /tmp). Also do not forget to update all network port numbers in conf2.
The smart solution is start a second VM with hadoop environment and join them in a single cluster. It's the way hadoop is intended to use.
