Hadoop datanode / namenode实际可以处理多少个块/对象？

Question

我在伪分布式模式下运行Hadoop 1.2.1，同时在同一个虚拟机上同时使用namenode和datanode。 datanode有4个卷。我正在做一些关于在Hadoop（4k，8k，...）中使用非常小的块大小的测试。复制因子设置为1。

当将块大小设置为8k时，我可以使用以下方法将64MB文件复制到hdfs：

bin/hadoop fs -put my64mbfile .

虽然在运行命令时我多次得到以下异常：

13/08/29 10:50:47 WARN hdfs.DFSClient: NotReplicatedYetException sleeping

在此之后，我重新格式化并重新启动hadoop。

当我调用相同的命令但是块大小为4k时，我仍然收到上面的警告，最终我得到了这个错误（只有大约一半的文件被复制到hdfs之后）：

datanode可以处理的块数是否有限制？或者namenode是否有另外一个关于对象数量的限制（dfs.namenode.fs-limits.max-blocks-per-file除外）？

对于4k情况，块的总量应为16384块，这意味着每卷约4100块，这意味着每卷约8200个文件（包括元数据文件）。

Answer 1

NameNode将整个文件保存到内存中的块映射（BlockMap），因此如果您配置的块太小，则BlockMap会变得非常大，从而导致OOME。见The memory consumption of hadoop's namenode?
