配置secondarynamenode（一般都会配错的secondarynamenode）

secondary namenoded 配置很容易被忽视，如果jps检查都正常，大家通常不会太关心，除非namenode发生问题的

时候，才会想起还有个secondary namenode，它的配置共两步：

 

1. 集群配置文件conf/master中添加secondarynamenode的机器名
2. 修改/添加 hdfs-site.xml中如下属性：

<property>
<name>dfs.http.address</name>
<value>{your_namenode_ip}:50070</value>
<description>
The address and the base port where the dfs namenode web ui will listen on.
If the port is 0 then the server will start on a free port.
</description>
</property>

 

 

这两项配置OK后，启动集群。进入secondary namenode 机器，检查fs.checkpoint.dir（core-site.xml文件，默认为${hadoop.tmp.dir}/dfs/namesecondary）目录同步状态是否和namenode一致的。

 

如果不配置第二项则，secondary namenode同步文件夹永远为空，这时查看secondary namenode的log显示错误为：

可能用到的core-site.xml文件相关属性

<property>
<name>fs.checkpoint.period</name>
<value>300</value>
<description>The number of seconds between two periodic checkpoints.
</description>
</property>

<property>
<name>fs.checkpoint.dir</name>
<value>${hadoop.tmp.dir}/dfs/namesecondary</value>
<description>Determines where on the local filesystem the DFS secondary
name node should store the temporary images to merge.
If this is a comma-delimited list of directories then the image is
replicated in all of the directories for redundancy.
</description>
</property>
