Re: Configure Rack Numbers

[Abdul Navaz <na...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Thank you very much for this document.  How can I see each data nodes
belongs to which rack ?

I ran the below command  on namenode and it throws an error.

bin/hadoop dfsadmin -printTopology
Warning: $HADOOP_HOME is deprecated.



printTopology: Unknown command


Is there any other command to check ?

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Navaz,

you have to configure the following two properties in namenode(after that
you need to restart the namenode).

<property>
  <name>topology.node.switch.mapping.impl</name>
  <value>org.apache.hadoop.net.ScriptBasedMapping</value>
  <description> The default implementation of the DNSToSwitchMapping. It
    invokes a script specified in topology.script.file.name to resolve
    node names. If the value for topology.script.file.name is not set, the
    default value of DEFAULT_RACK is returned for all node names.
  </description></property><property>
  <name>topology.script.file.name</name>
  <value>/path/to/topo.sh</value>
  <description> The script name that should be invoked to resolve DNS names
to
    NetworkTopology names. Example: the script would take host.foo.bar as an
    argument, and return /rack1 as the output.
  </description></property>


Example script file.


topo.sh
=======

#!/bin/bash

python <TOPOLOGY_SCRIPT_HOME>/topology.py "$@"


topology.py 
===========
import sys 
from string import join

DEFAULT_RACK = '/default/rack0';

RACK_MAP = { '208.94.2.10' : '/datacenter1/rack0',
             '1.2.3.4' : '/datacenter1/rack1',
             '1.2.3.5' : '/datacenter1/rack1',
             '1.2.3.6' : '/datacenter1/rack1',

             '10.2.3.4' : '/datacenter1/rack2',
             '10.2.3.4' : '/datacenter1/rack2'
    } 

if len(sys.argv)==1:
    print DEFAULT_RACK
else: 
    print join([RACK_MAP.get(i, DEFAULT_RACK) for i in sys.argv[1:]]," ")

Subject: Configure Rack Numbers

Hello,
I have hadoop cluster with 9 nodes. All belongs to /default racks. But I
want the setup something similar to this.
(All are in same subnets)
 Rack 0: DataNode1,Datanode2,DataNode3 and top of rack switch1.
 Rack 1: DataNode4,Datanode5,DataNode6 and top of rack switch2.
 Rack 3: DataNode7,Datanode8,DataNode9 and top of rack switch3.
I am trying to check the Hadoop rack awareness and how it copies the single
block of data in one rack and replicas in some other rack. I want to analyse
some network performance from this.
So how can we separate this DNs based on rack numbers. Where can we
configure this rack numbers and say this DN belongs to this rack number.


Thanks & Regards,

Abdul Navaz
