[color=red][size=medium]2 Entering and leaving safe mode[/size][/color]

To see whether the namenode is in safe mode, you can use the dfsadmin command:
% hadoop dfsadmin -safemode get
Safe mode is ON

Sometimes you want to wait for the namenode to exit safe mode before carrying out a
command, particularly in scripts. The wait option achieves this:
hadoop dfsadmin -safemode wait
# command to read or write a file

To enter safe mode,use the following command:
% hadoop dfsadmin -safemode enter
Safe mode is ON

You can make the namenode leave safe mode by using:
% hadoop dfsadmin -safemode leave
Safe mode is OFF
