hdfs compatibility

Hi,

I have an existing Hadoop cluster built from 0.21.0 release and have some
important data on HDFS, now I'm planning to move to the current GA
release(2.2.0), what's the procedure for the data migration(from 0.21.0
hdfs to 2,20 hdfs) if topology is not changed(all nodes are not changed)?
Can I simply copy all meta data files from 0.21.0(say
/hadoop_021/temp/hdfs/namenode/) to 2.2.0(say
/hadoop-220/temp/hdfs/namenode).

Thanks

Thanks, I have done this by copying meta data from one local directory to
another on each node, an interesting thing is I need to add "-upgrade"
command option when starting NN.

Hello Anfernee,

Actually this not data migrations !! . It is upgrade. If you have to
cluster older one 0.21.0 with data and another one 2.2.0 is new. Then if
want to copy data from older to newer then it is data migration, i doesn't
require any extra care just copy data. if want change in the same old
cluster then you have to follow upgrade steps
