Hi!

I followed the decommissioning guide on the hadoop hdfs wiki.

the hdfs web ui shows that the decommissioning proceess has successfully
begun.

it started redeploying 80,000 blocks through the hadoop cluster, but for
some reason it stopped at 9059 blocks. I've waited 30 hours and still no
progress.

Any one with any idea?

Hi Ben,

Are there any corrupted blocks in your hadoop cluster.

Hi Varun, Thnk you for the reponse

No there doesnt seem to be any corrupted blocks in my cluster.
I did "hadoop fsck -blocks /" and it didnt report any corrupted block.

However, these are two WARNings in the namenode log, constantly repeating
since the decommission.

There isn't any WARN or ERROR in the decommissioning datanode log

UPDATE:

WARN with edit log had nothing to do with the current problem.

However replica placement warnings seem to be suspicious.
Please have a look at the following logs.

2013-01-22 09:12:10,885 WARN

I have set my replication factor to 3. I dont understand why hadoop is
trying to replicate it to 10 nodes. I have decommissioned one node so
currently I have 9 nodes in operation. It will never be replicated to 10
nodes.

I also see that all repeated warning msg like the above is for
blk_4844131893883391179_3440513.

How would I delete the block? it's not showing as corrupted block on fsck.
:(

Impatient I am, I just shut down the cluster and restarted it with empty
exclude file.

If I added the datanode hostname back to the exclude file, and ran hadoop
dfsadmin -refreshNodes, *the datanode goes straight to the dead node *without
going to the descommission process.

I'm done for today. maybe someone else can figure it out when I come back
tomorrow :)

Best regards,
Ben
