前段时间因为hadoop集群各datanode空间使用率很不均衡,需要重新balance(主要是有后加入集群的2台机器磁盘空间比较大引起的),在执行如下语句:
bin/start-balancer.sh -threshold 10
后,日志输出如下:

很明显,balancer已经计算出要移动的数据量,但是就是没有移动,这是为什么呢?
查看hadoop-mysql-balancer-master.log并没有发现Error或者Warning,那只能去看源码了。
原来hadoop balancer在进行转移block的时候是会判断的,具体要求见下面的代码:
/* Decide if it is OK to move the given block from source to target * A block is a good candidate if * 1. the block is not in the process of being moved/has not been moved; * 2. the block does not have a replica on the target; * 3. doing the move does not reduce the number of racks that the block has */ private boolean isGoodBlockCandidate(Source source, BalancerDatanode target, BalancerBlock block) { // check if the block is moved or not if (movedBlocks.contains(block)) { return false; } if (block.isLocatedOnDatanode(target)) { return false; } boolean goodBlock = false; if (cluster.isOnSameRack(source.getDatanode(), target.getDatanode())) { // good if source and target are on the same rack goodBlock = true; } else { boolean notOnSameRack = true; synchronized (block) { for (BalancerDatanode loc : block.locations) { if (cluster.isOnSameRack(loc.datanode, target.datanode)) { notOnSameRack = false; break; } } } if (notOnSameRack) { // good if target is target is not on the same rack as any replica goodBlock = true; } else { // good if source is on the same rack as on of the replicas for (BalancerDatanode loc : block.locations) { if (loc != source && cluster.isOnSameRack(loc.datanode, source.datanode)) { goodBlock = true; break; } } } } return goodBlock; }
对照上面的3个要求,逐一排查未移动block的原因:
(1)需要移动的block在本次balance的过程中没有被移动过------这条满足;
(2)需要移动的block在目标机器上不存在------这条待验证;
(3)需要移动的block,在移动后不改变每个机架上block的数量(注意,这是的数量不是总数量,是去重以后的block数量,例如,block的备份数是2,其实是算一个唯一的block)------由于集群在配置的时候没有添加机架感知脚本,所以默认情况下,都在1个机架上,这条满足。
那现在就去集群上验证第二条,果不其然,发现很多block在后面加入的2台机器上都已经存在,这还移动个屁啊,那边都已经存在了,所以balancer移动进程就退出了。
解决方法:
1.使用如下命令
bin/hadoop fs -setRep -R / 2
将集群中的block备份数同一设置成你在hdfs-site.xml中
<property> <name>dfs.replication</name> <value>2</value> </property>
配置的备份数,然后重启hadoop集群,等hadoop完成校验blcok以后再balance即可解决问题。
