<description>Determines where on the local filesystem an DFS data node
should store its blocks. If this is a comma-delimited
list of directories, then data will be stored in all named
directories, typically on different devices. The directories should be tagged
with corresponding storage types ([SSD]/[DISK]/[ARCHIVE]/[RAM_DISK]) for HDFS
storage policies. The default storage type will be DISK if the directory does
not have a storage type tagged explicitly. Directories that do not exist will
be created if local filesystem permission allows.

before we signal failure to the application.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.block.write.replace-datanode-on-failure.enable</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>
If there is a datanode/network failure in the write pipeline,
DFSClient will try to remove the failed datanode from the pipeline
and then continue writing with the remaining datanodes. As a result,
the number of datanodes in the pipeline is decreased. The feature is
to add new datanodes to the pipeline.
This is a site-wide property to enable/disable the feature.
When the cluster size is extremely small, e.g. 3 nodes or less, cluster
administrators may want to set the policy to NEVER in the default
configuration file or disable this feature. Otherwise, users may
experience an unusually high rate of pipeline failures since it is
impossible to find new datanodes for replacement.
See also dfs.client.block.write.replace-datanode-on-failure.policy
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.block.write.replace-datanode-on-failure.policy</name>
<value>DEFAULT</value>
<description>
This property is used only if the value of
dfs.client.block.write.replace-datanode-on-failure.enable is true.
ALWAYS: always add a new datanode when an existing datanode is removed.
NEVER: never add a new datanode.
DEFAULT:
Let r be the replication number.
Let n be the number of existing datanodes.
Add a new datanode only if r is greater than or equal to 3 and either
(1) floor(r/2) is greater than or equal to n; or
(2) r is greater than n and the block is hflushed/appended.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.block.write.replace-datanode-on-failure.best-effort</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
This property is used only if the value of
dfs.client.block.write.replace-datanode-on-failure.enable is true.
Best effort means that the client will try to replace a failed datanode
in write pipeline (provided that the policy is satisfied), however, it
continues the write operation in case that the datanode replacement also
fails.
Suppose the datanode replacement fails.
false: An exception should be thrown so that the write will fail.
true : The write should be resumed with the remaining datandoes.
Note that setting this property to true allows writing to a pipeline
with a smaller number of datanodes. As a result, it increases the
probability of data loss.

<name>dfs.blockreport.split.threshold</name>
<value>1000000</value>
<description>If the number of blocks on the DataNode is below this
threshold then it will send block reports for all Storage Directories
in a single message.
If the number of blocks exceeds this threshold then the DataNode will
send block reports for each Storage Directory in separate messages.
Set to zero to always split.

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.directoryscan.interval</name>

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.directoryscan.threads</name>
<value>1</value>
<description>How many threads should the threadpool used to compile reports
for volumes in parallel have.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.directoryscan.throttle.limit.ms.per.sec</name>
<value>0</value>
<description>The report compilation threads are limited to only running for
a given number of milliseconds per second, as configured by the
property. The limit is taken per thread, not in aggregate, e.g. setting
a limit of 100ms for 4 compiler threads will result in each thread being
limited to 100ms, not 25ms.
Note that the throttle does not interrupt the report compiler threads, so the
actual running time of the threads per second will typically be somewhat
higher than the throttle limit, usually by no more than 20%.
Setting this limit to 1000 disables compiler thread throttling. Only
values between 1 and 1000 are valid. Setting an invalid value will result
in the throttle being disbled and an error message being logged. 1000 is
the default setting.

<value>0</value>
<description>
Specifies the number of datanodes that must be considered alive
before the name node exits safemode.
Values less than or equal to 0 mean not to take the number of live
datanodes into account when deciding whether to remain in safe mode
during startup.
Values greater than the number of datanodes in the cluster
will make safe mode permanent.

of objects that dfs supports.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.datanode.registration.ip-hostname-check</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>
If true (the default), then the namenode requires that a connecting
datanode's address must be resolved to a hostname. If necessary, a reverse
DNS lookup is performed. All attempts to register a datanode from an
unresolvable address are rejected.
It is recommended that this setting be left on to prevent accidental
registration of datanodes listed by hostname in the excludes file during a
DNS outage. Only set this to false in environments where there is no
infrastructure to support reverse DNS lookup.

</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.num.checkpoints.retained</name>
<value>2</value>
<description>The number of image checkpoint files (fsimage_*) that will be retained by
the NameNode and Secondary NameNode in their storage directories. All edit
logs (stored on edits_* files) necessary to recover an up-to-date namespace from the oldest retained
checkpoint will also be retained.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.num.extra.edits.retained</name>
<value>1000000</value>
<description>The number of extra transactions which should be retained
beyond what is minimally necessary for a NN restart.
It does not translate directly to file's age, or the number of files kept,
but to the number of transactions (here "edits" means transactions).
One edit file may contain several transactions (edits).
During checkpoint, NameNode will identify the total number of edits to retain as extra by
checking the latest checkpoint transaction value, subtracted by the value of this property.
Then, it scans edits files to identify the older ones that don't include the computed range of
retained transactions that are to be kept around, and purges them subsequently.
The retainment can be useful for audit purposes or for an HA setup where a remote Standby Node may have
been offline for some time and need to have a longer backlog of retained
edits in order to start again.
Typically each edit is on the order of a few hundred bytes, so the default
of 1 million edits should be on the order of hundreds of MBs or low GBs.
NOTE: Fewer extra edits may be retained than value specified for this setting
if doing so would mean that more segments would be retained than the number
configured by dfs.namenode.max.extra.edits.segments.retained.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.max.extra.edits.segments.retained</name>
<value>10000</value>
<description>The maximum number of extra edit log segments which should be retained

dfs.namenode.num.extra.edits.retained, this configuration property serves to cap
the number of extra edits files to a reasonable value.

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.readahead.bytes</name>
<value>4194304</value>
<description>
While reading block files, if the Hadoop native libraries are available,
the datanode can use the posix_fadvise system call to explicitly
page data into the operating system buffer cache ahead of the current
reader's position. This can improve performance especially when
disks are highly contended.
This configuration specifies the number of bytes ahead of the current
read position which the datanode will attempt to read ahead. This
feature may be disabled by configuring this property to 0.
If the native libraries are not available, this configuration has no
effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.drop.cache.behind.reads</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
In some workloads, the data read from HDFS is known to be significantly
large enough that it is unlikely to be useful to cache it in the
operating system buffer cache. In this case, the DataNode may be
configured to automatically purge all data from the buffer cache
after it is delivered to the client. This behavior is automatically
disabled for workloads which read only short sections of a block
(e.g HBase random-IO workloads).
This may improve performance for some workloads by freeing buffer
cache space usage for more cacheable data.
If the Hadoop native libraries are not available, this configuration
has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.drop.cache.behind.writes</name>

<description>
In some workloads, the data written to HDFS is known to be significantly
large enough that it is unlikely to be useful to cache it in the
operating system buffer cache. In this case, the DataNode may be
configured to automatically purge all data from the buffer cache
after it is written to disk.
This may improve performance for some workloads by freeing buffer
cache space usage for more cacheable data.
If the Hadoop native libraries are not available, this configuration
has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.sync.behind.writes</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
If this configuration is enabled, the datanode will instruct the
operating system to enqueue all written data to the disk immediately
after it is written. This differs from the usual OS policy which
may wait for up to 30 seconds before triggering writeback.
This may improve performance for some workloads by smoothing the
IO profile for data written to disk.
If the Hadoop native libraries are not available, this configuration
has no effect.

Indicate whether or not to avoid writing to "stale" datanodes whose
heartbeat messages have not been received by the namenode
for more than a specified time interval. Writes will avoid using
stale datanodes unless more than a configured ratio
(dfs.namenode.write.stale.datanode.ratio) of datanodes are marked as

</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.stale.datanode.interval</name>
<value>30000</value>
<description>
Default time interval for marking a datanode as "stale", i.e., if
the namenode has not received heartbeat msg from a datanode for
more than this time interval, the datanode will be marked and treated
as "stale" by default. The stale interval cannot be too small since
otherwise this may cause too frequent change of stale states.
We thus set a minimum stale interval value (the default value is 3 times
of heartbeat interval) and guarantee that the stale interval cannot be less
than the minimum value. A stale data node is avoided during lease/block
recovery. It can be conditionally avoided for reads (see
dfs.namenode.avoid.read.stale.datanode) and for writes (see

<description>
*Note*: Advanced property. Change with caution.
This determines the percentage amount of block
invalidations (deletes) to do over a single DN heartbeat
deletion command. The final deletion count is determined by applying this
percentage to the number of live nodes in the system.
The resultant number is the number of blocks from the deletion list
chosen for proper invalidation over a single heartbeat of a single DN.
Value should be a positive, non-zero percentage in float notation (X.Yf),
with 1.0f meaning 100%.
</description>

<description>
*Note*: Advanced property. Change with caution.
This determines the total amount of block transfers to begin in
parallel at a DN, for replication, when such a command list is being
sent over a DN heartbeat by the NN. The actual number is obtained by
multiplying this multiplier with the total number of live nodes in the
cluster. The result number is the number of blocks to begin transfers
immediately for, per DN heartbeat. This number can be any positive,
non-zero integer.

<property>
<name>hadoop.fuse.connection.timeout</name>
<value>300</value>
<description>
The minimum number of seconds that we'll cache libhdfs connection objects
in fuse_dfs. Lower values will result in lower memory consumption; higher
values may speed up access by avoiding the overhead of creating new
connection objects.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>hadoop.fuse.timer.period</name>
<value>5</value>
<description>
The number of seconds between cache expiry checks in fuse_dfs. Lower values
will result in fuse_dfs noticing changes to Kerberos ticket caches more
quickly.

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.encrypt.data.transfer</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
Whether or not actual block data that is read/written from/to HDFS should
be encrypted on the wire. This only needs to be set on the NN and DNs,
clients will deduce this automatically. It is possible to override this setting
per connection by specifying custom logic via dfs.trustedchannel.resolver.class.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.encrypt.data.transfer.algorithm</name>
<value></value>
<description>
This value may be set to either "3des" or "rc4". If nothing is set, then
the configured JCE default on the system is used (usually 3DES.) It is
widely believed that 3DES is more cryptographically secure, but RC4 is
substantially faster.
Note that if AES is supported by both the client and server then this
encryption algorithm will only be used to initially transfer keys for AES.
(See dfs.encrypt.data.transfer.cipher.suites.)
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.encrypt.data.transfer.cipher.suites</name>
<value></value>
<description>
This value may be either undefined or AES/CTR/NoPadding. If defined, then
dfs.encrypt.data.transfer uses the specified cipher suite for data
encryption. If not defined, then only the algorithm specified in
dfs.encrypt.data.transfer.algorithm is used. By default, the property is
not defined.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.encrypt.data.transfer.cipher.key.bitlength</name>
<value>128</value>
<description>
The key bitlength negotiated by dfsclient and datanode for encryption.
This value may be set to either 128, 192 or 256.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.trustedchannel.resolver.class</name>
<value></value>
<description>
TrustedChannelResolver is used to determine whether a channel
is trusted for plain data transfer. The TrustedChannelResolver is
invoked on both client and server side. If the resolver indicates
that the channel is trusted, then the data transfer will not be
encrypted even if dfs.encrypt.data.transfer is set to true. The
default implementation returns false indicating that the channel
is not trusted.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.data.transfer.protection</name>
<value></value>
<description>
A comma-separated list of SASL protection values used for secured
connections to the DataNode when reading or writing block data. Possible
values are authentication, integrity and privacy. authentication means
authentication only and no integrity or privacy; integrity implies
authentication and integrity are enabled; and privacy implies all of
authentication, integrity and privacy are enabled. If
dfs.encrypt.data.transfer is set to true, then it supersedes the setting for
dfs.data.transfer.protection and enforces that all connections must use a
specialized encrypted SASL handshake. This property is ignored for
connections to a DataNode listening on a privileged port. In this case, it
is assumed that the use of a privileged port establishes sufficient trust.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.data.transfer.saslproperties.resolver.class</name>
<value></value>
<description>
SaslPropertiesResolver used to resolve the QOP used for a connection to the

<value>default</value>
<description>
List of classes implementing audit loggers that will receive audit events.
These should be implementations of org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.AuditLogger.
The special value "default" can be used to reference the default audit
logger, which uses the configured log system. Installing custom audit loggers
may affect the performance and stability of the NameNode. Refer to the custom
logger's documentation for more details.

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.available-space-volume-choosing-policy.balanced-space-threshold</name>
<value>10737418240</value> <!-- 10 GB -->
<description>
Only used when the dfs.datanode.fsdataset.volume.choosing.policy is set to
org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.datanode.fsdataset.AvailableSpaceVolumeChoosingPolicy.
This setting controls how much DN volumes are allowed to differ in terms of
bytes of free disk space before they are considered imbalanced. If the free
space of all the volumes are within this range of each other, the volumes
will be considered balanced and block assignments will be done on a pure
round robin basis.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.available-space-volume-choosing-policy.balanced-space-preference-fraction</name>
<value>0.75f</value>
<description>
Only used when the dfs.datanode.fsdataset.volume.choosing.policy is set to
org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.datanode.fsdataset.AvailableSpaceVolumeChoosingPolicy.
This setting controls what percentage of new block allocations will be sent
to volumes with more available disk space than others. This setting should
be in the range 0.0 - 1.0, though in practice 0.5 - 1.0, since there should
be no reason to prefer that volumes with less available disk space receive
more block allocations.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.edits.noeditlogchannelflush</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
Specifies whether to flush edit log file channel. When set, expensive
FileChannel#force calls are skipped and synchronous disk writes are
enabled instead by opening the edit log file with RandomAccessFile("rws")
flags. This can significantly improve the performance of edit log writes
on the Windows platform.
Note that the behavior of the "rws" flags is platform and hardware specific
and might not provide the same level of guarantees as FileChannel#force.
For example, the write will skip the disk-cache on SAS and SCSI devices
while it might not on SATA devices. This is an expert level setting,
change with caution.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.cache.drop.behind.writes</name>
<value></value>
<description>
Just like dfs.datanode.drop.cache.behind.writes, this setting causes the
page cache to be dropped behind HDFS writes, potentially freeing up more
memory for other uses. Unlike dfs.datanode.drop.cache.behind.writes, this
is a client-side setting rather than a setting for the entire datanode.
If present, this setting will override the DataNode default.
If the native libraries are not available to the DataNode, this
configuration has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.cache.drop.behind.reads</name>
<value></value>
<description>
Just like dfs.datanode.drop.cache.behind.reads, this setting causes the
page cache to be dropped behind HDFS reads, potentially freeing up more
memory for other uses. Unlike dfs.datanode.drop.cache.behind.reads, this
is a client-side setting rather than a setting for the entire datanode. If
present, this setting will override the DataNode default.
If the native libraries are not available to the DataNode, this
configuration has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.cache.readahead</name>
<value></value>
<description>
When using remote reads, this setting causes the datanode to
read ahead in the block file using posix_fadvise, potentially decreasing
I/O wait times. Unlike dfs.datanode.readahead.bytes, this is a client-side
setting rather than a setting for the entire datanode. If present, this
setting will override the DataNode default.
When using local reads, this setting determines how much readahead we do in
BlockReaderLocal.
If the native libraries are not available to the DataNode, this
configuration has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.enable.retrycache</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>
This enables the retry cache on the namenode. Namenode tracks for
non-idempotent requests the corresponding response. If a client retries the
request, the response from the retry cache is sent. Such operations
are tagged with annotation @AtMostOnce in namenode protocols. It is
recommended that this flag be set to true. Setting it to false, will result
in clients getting failure responses to retried request. This flag must
be enabled in HA setup for transparent fail-overs.
The entries in the cache have expiration time configurable
using dfs.namenode.retrycache.expirytime.millis.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.retrycache.expirytime.millis</name>
<value>600000</value>
<description>
The time for which retry cache entries are retained.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.retrycache.heap.percent</name>
<value>0.03f</value>
<description>
This parameter configures the heap size allocated for retry cache
(excluding the response cached). This corresponds to approximately
4096 entries for every 64MB of namenode process java heap size.
Assuming retry cache entry expiration time (configured using
dfs.namenode.retrycache.expirytime.millis) of 10 minutes, this
enables retry cache to support 7 operations per second sustained
for 10 minutes. As the heap size is increased, the operation rate
linearly increases.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.mmap.enabled</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>
If this is set to false, the client won't attempt to perform memory-mapped reads.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.mmap.cache.size</name>
<value>256</value>
<description>
When zero-copy reads are used, the DFSClient keeps a cache of recently used
memory mapped regions. This parameter controls the maximum number of
entries that we will keep in that cache.
The larger this number is, the more file descriptors we will potentially
use for memory-mapped files. mmaped files also use virtual address space.
You may need to increase your ulimit virtual address space limits before
increasing the client mmap cache size.
Note that you can still do zero-copy reads when this size is set to 0.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.mmap.cache.timeout.ms</name>
<value>3600000</value>
<description>
The minimum length of time that we will keep an mmap entry in the cache
between uses. If an entry is in the cache longer than this, and nobody
uses it, it will be removed by a background thread.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.mmap.retry.timeout.ms</name>
<value>300000</value>
<description>
The minimum amount of time that we will wait before retrying a failed mmap
operation.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.short.circuit.replica.stale.threshold.ms</name>
<value>1800000</value>
<description>
The maximum amount of time that we will consider a short-circuit replica to
be valid, if there is no communication from the DataNode. After this time
has elapsed, we will re-fetch the short-circuit replica even if it is in
the cache.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.path.based.cache.block.map.allocation.percent</name>
<value>0.25</value>
<description>
The percentage of the Java heap which we will allocate to the cached blocks
map. The cached blocks map is a hash map which uses chained hashing.
Smaller maps may be accessed more slowly if the number of cached blocks is
large; larger maps will consume more memory.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.max.locked.memory</name>
<value>0</value>
<description>
The amount of memory in bytes to use for caching of block replicas in
memory on the datanode. The datanode's maximum locked memory soft ulimit
(RLIMIT_MEMLOCK) must be set to at least this value, else the datanode
will abort on startup.
By default, this parameter is set to 0, which disables in-memory caching.
If the native libraries are not available to the DataNode, this
configuration has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.list.cache.directives.num.responses</name>
<value>100</value>
<description>
This value controls the number of cache directives that the NameNode will
send over the wire in response to a listDirectives RPC.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.list.cache.pools.num.responses</name>
<value>100</value>
<description>
This value controls the number of cache pools that the NameNode will
send over the wire in response to a listPools RPC.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.path.based.cache.refresh.interval.ms</name>
<value>30000</value>
<description>
The amount of milliseconds between subsequent path cache rescans. Path
cache rescans are when we calculate which blocks should be cached, and on
what datanodes.
By default, this parameter is set to 30 seconds.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.path.based.cache.retry.interval.ms</name>
<value>30000</value>
<description>
When the NameNode needs to uncache something that is cached, or cache
something that is not cached, it must direct the DataNodes to do so by
sending a DNA_CACHE or DNA_UNCACHE command in response to a DataNode
heartbeat. This parameter controls how frequently the NameNode will
resend these commands.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.fsdatasetcache.max.threads.per.volume</name>
<value>4</value>
<description>
The maximum number of threads per volume to use for caching new data
on the datanode. These threads consume both I/O and CPU. This can affect
normal datanode operations.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.cachereport.intervalMsec</name>
<value>10000</value>
<description>
Determines cache reporting interval in milliseconds. After this amount of
time, the DataNode sends a full report of its cache state to the NameNode.
The NameNode uses the cache report to update its map of cached blocks to
DataNode locations.
This configuration has no effect if in-memory caching has been disabled by
setting dfs.datanode.max.locked.memory to 0 (which is the default).
If the native libraries are not available to the DataNode, this
configuration has no effect.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.edit.log.autoroll.multiplier.threshold</name>
<value>2.0</value>
<description>
Determines when an active namenode will roll its own edit log.
The actual threshold (in number of edits) is determined by multiplying
this value by dfs.namenode.checkpoint.txns.
This prevents extremely large edit files from accumulating on the active
namenode, which can cause timeouts during namenode startup and pose an
administrative hassle. This behavior is intended as a failsafe for when
the standby or secondary namenode fail to roll the edit log by the normal
checkpoint threshold.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.edit.log.autoroll.check.interval.ms</name>
<value>300000</value>
<description>
How often an active namenode will check if it needs to roll its edit log,
in milliseconds.

<value>^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[$]?$</value>
<description>
Valid pattern for user and group names for webhdfs, it must be a valid java regex.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.context</name>
<value>default</value>
<description>
The name of the DFSClient context that we should use. Clients that share
a context share a socket cache and short-circuit cache, among other things.
You should only change this if you don't want to share with another set of
threads.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.read.shortcircuit</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
This configuration parameter turns on short-circuit local reads.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.socket.send.buffer.size</name>
<value>131072</value>
<description>
Socket send buffer size for a write pipeline in DFSClient side.
This may affect TCP connection throughput.
If it is set to zero or negative value,
no buffer size will be set explicitly,
thus enable tcp auto-tuning on some system.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.domain.socket.path</name>
<value></value>
<description>
Optional. This is a path to a UNIX domain socket that will be used for
communication between the DataNode and local HDFS clients.
If the string "_PORT" is present in this path, it will be replaced by the
TCP port of the DataNode.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.read.shortcircuit.skip.checksum</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
If this configuration parameter is set,
short-circuit local reads will skip checksums.
This is normally not recommended,
but it may be useful for special setups.
You might consider using this
if you are doing your own checksumming outside of HDFS.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.read.shortcircuit.streams.cache.size</name>
<value>256</value>
<description>
The DFSClient maintains a cache of recently opened file descriptors.
This parameter controls the size of that cache.
Setting this higher will use more file descriptors,
but potentially provide better performance on workloads
involving lots of seeks.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.read.shortcircuit.streams.cache.expiry.ms</name>
<value>300000</value>
<description>
This controls the minimum amount of time
file descriptors need to sit in the client cache context
before they can be closed for being inactive for too long.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.shared.file.descriptor.paths</name>
<value>/dev/shm,/tmp</value>
<description>
Comma separated paths to the directory on which
shared memory segments are created.
The client and the DataNode exchange information via
this shared memory segment.
It tries paths in order until creation of shared memory segment succeeds.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.use.legacy.blockreader.local</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
Legacy short-circuit reader implementation based on HDFS-2246 is used
if this configuration parameter is true.
This is for the platforms other than Linux
where the new implementation based on HDFS-347 is not available.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.block.local-path-access.user</name>
<value></value>
<description>
Comma separated list of the users allowd to open block files
on legacy short-circuit local read.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.domain.socket.data.traffic</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
This control whether we will try to pass normal data traffic
over UNIX domain socket rather than over TCP socket
on node-local data transfer.
This is currently experimental and turned off by default.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.reject-unresolved-dn-topology-mapping</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
If the value is set to true, then namenode will reject datanode
registration if the topology mapping for a datanode is not resolved and
NULL is returned (script defined by net.topology.script.file.name fails
to execute). Otherwise, datanode will be registered and the default rack
will be assigned as the topology path. Topology paths are important for
data resiliency, since they define fault domains. Thus it may be unwanted
behavior to allow datanode registration with the default rack if the
resolving topology failed.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.client.slow.io.warning.threshold.ms</name>
<value>30000</value>
<description>The threshold in milliseconds at which we will log a slow
io warning in a dfsclient. By default, this parameter is set to 30000
milliseconds (30 seconds).

<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.write-lock-reporting-threshold-ms</name>
<value>5000</value>
<description>When a write lock is held on the namenode for a long time,
this will be logged as the lock is released. This sets how long the
lock must be held for logging to occur.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.read-lock-reporting-threshold-ms</name>
<value>5000</value>
<description>When a read lock is held on the namenode for a long time,
this will be logged as the lock is released. This sets how long the
lock must be held for logging to occur.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.lock.detailed-metrics.enabled</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>If true, the namenode will keep track of how long various
operations hold the Namesystem lock for and emit this as metrics. These
metrics have names of the form FSN(Read|Write)LockNanosOperationName,
where OperationName denotes the name of the operation that initiated the
lock hold (this will be OTHER for certain uncategorized operations) and
they export the hold time values in nanoseconds.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.fslock.fair</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>If this is true, the FS Namesystem lock will be used in Fair mode,
which will help to prevent writer threads from being starved, but can provide
lower lock throughput. See java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantReadWriteLock
for more information on fair/non-fair locks.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.startup.delay.block.deletion.sec</name>
<value>0</value>
<description>The delay in seconds at which we will pause the blocks deletion
after Namenode startup. By default it's disabled.
In the case a directory has large number of directories and files are
deleted, suggested delay is one hour to give the administrator enough time
to notice large number of pending deletion blocks and take corrective
action.

<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.list.encryption.zones.num.responses</name>
<value>100</value>
<description>When listing encryption zones, the maximum number of zones
that will be returned in a batch. Fetching the list incrementally in
batches improves namenode performance.

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.inotify.max.events.per.rpc</name>
<value>1000</value>
<description>Maximum number of events that will be sent to an inotify client
in a single RPC response. The default value attempts to amortize away
the overhead for this RPC while avoiding huge memory requirements for the
client and NameNode (1000 events should consume no more than 1 MB.)
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.user.home.dir.prefix</name>
<value>/user</value>
<description>The directory to prepend to user name to get the user's
home direcotry.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.cache.revocation.timeout.ms</name>
<value>900000</value>
<description>When the DFSClient reads from a block file which the DataNode is
caching, the DFSClient can skip verifying checksums. The DataNode will
keep the block file in cache until the client is done. If the client takes
an unusually long time, though, the DataNode may need to evict the block
file from the cache anyway. This value controls how long the DataNode will
wait for the client to release a replica that it is reading without
checksums.

<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.bp-ready.timeout</name>
<value>20</value>
<description>
The maximum wait time for datanode to be ready before failing the
received request. Setting this to 0 fails requests right away if the
datanode is not yet registered with the namenode. This wait time
reduces initial request failures after datanode restart.

<property>
<name>dfs.balancer.keytab.enabled</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
Set to true to enable login using a keytab for Kerberized Hadoop.

</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.balancer.address</name>
<value>0.0.0.0:0</value>
<description>
The hostname used for a keytab based Kerberos login. Keytab based login
can be enabled with dfs.balancer.keytab.enabled.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.balancer.keytab.file</name>
<value></value>
<description>
The keytab file used by the Balancer to login as its
service principal. The principal name is configured with
dfs.balancer.kerberos.principal. Keytab based login can be
enabled with dfs.balancer.keytab.enabled.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.balancer.kerberos.principal</name>
<value></value>
<description>
The Balancer principal. This is typically set to
balancer/[email protected]. The Balancer will substitute _HOST with its
own fully qualified hostname at startup. The _HOST placeholder
allows using the same configuration setting on different servers.
Keytab based login can be enabled with dfs.balancer.keytab.enabled.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.balancer.block-move.timeout</name>
<value>0</value>
<description>
Maximum amount of time in milliseconds for a block to move. If this is set
greater than 0, Balancer will stop waiting for a block move completion
after this time. In typical clusters, a 3 to 5 minute timeout is reasonable.
If timeout happens to a large proportion of block moves, this needs to be
increased. It could also be that too much work is dispatched and many nodes
are constantly exceeding the bandwidth limit as a result. In that case,
other balancer parameters might need to be adjusted.
It is disabled (0) by default.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.balancer.max-no-move-interval</name>
<value>60000</value>
<description>
If this specified amount of time has elapsed and no block has been moved
out of a source DataNode, on more effort will be made to move blocks out of
this DataNode in the current Balancer iteration.
