Rack Awareness
|
||||
|
||||
Hadoop components are rack-aware. For example, HDFS block placement will
|
||||
use rack awareness for fault tolerance by placing one block replica on a
|
||||
different rack. This provides data availability in the event of a network
|
||||
switch failure or partition within the cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
Hadoop master daemons obtain the rack id of the cluster slaves by invoking
|
||||
either an external script or java class as specified by configuration files.
|
||||
Using either the java class or external script for topology, output must
|
||||
adhere to the java <<org.apache.hadoop.net.DNSToSwitchMapping>>
|
||||
interface. The interface expects a one-to-one correspondence to be
|
||||
maintained and the topology information in the format of '/myrack/myhost',
|
||||
where '/' is the topology delimiter, 'myrack' is the rack identifier, and
|
||||
'myhost' is the individual host. Assuming a single /24 subnet per rack,
|
||||
one could use the format of '/192.168.100.0/192.168.100.5' as a
|
||||
unique rack-host topology mapping.
|
||||
|
||||
To use the java class for topology mapping, the class name is specified by
|
||||
the <<topology.node.switch.mapping.impl>> parameter in the configuration
|
||||
file. An example, NetworkTopology.java, is included with the hadoop
|
||||
distribution and can be customized by the Hadoop administrator. Using a
|
||||
Java class instead of an external script has a performance benefit in
|
||||
that Hadoop doesn't need to fork an external process when a new slave node
|
||||
registers itself.
|
||||
|
||||
If implementing an external script, it will be specified with the
|
||||
<<topology.script.file.name>> parameter in the configuration files. Unlike
|
||||
the java class, the external topology script is not included with the Hadoop
|
||||
distribution and is provided by the administrator. Hadoop will send
|
||||
multiple IP addresses to ARGV when forking the topology script. The
|
||||
number of IP addresses sent to the topology script is controlled with
|
||||
<<net.topology.script.number.args>> and defaults to 100. If
|
||||
<<net.topology.script.number.args>> was changed to 1, a topology script
|
||||
would get forked for each IP submitted by DataNodes and/or NodeManagers.
|
||||
|
||||
If <<topology.script.file.name>> or <<topology.node.switch.mapping.impl>> is
|
||||
not set, the rack id '/default-rack' is returned for any passed IP address.
|
||||
While this behavior appears desirable, it can cause issues with HDFS block
|
||||
replication as default behavior is to write one replicated block off rack
|
||||
and is unable to do so as there is only a single rack named '/default-rack'.
|
||||
|
||||
An additional configuration setting is
|
||||
<<mapreduce.jobtracker.taskcache.levels>> which determines the number of
|
||||
levels (in the network topology) of caches MapReduce will use. So, for
|
||||
example, if it is the default value of 2, two levels of caches will be
|
||||
constructed - one for hosts (host -> task mapping) and another for racks
|
||||
(rack -> task mapping). Giving us our one-to-one mapping of '/myrack/myhost'.

#!/usr/bin/python
|
||||
# this script makes assumptions about the physical environment.
|
||||
# 1) each rack is its own layer 3 network with a /24 subnet, which
|
||||
# could be typical where each rack has its own
|
||||
# switch with uplinks to a central core router.

# 2) topology script gets list of IP's as input, calculates network address, and prints '/network_address/ip'.
|
||||
|
||||
import netaddr
|
||||
import sys
|
||||
sys.argv.pop(0) # discard name of topology script from argv list as we just want IP addresses
|
||||
|
||||
netmask = '255.255.255.0' # set netmask to what's being used in your environment. The example uses a /24
|
||||
|
||||
for ip in sys.argv: # loop over list of datanode IP's
|
||||
address = '{0}/{1}'.format(ip, netmask) # format address string so it looks like 'ip/netmask' to make netaddr work
|
||||
try:
|
||||
network_address = netaddr.IPNetwork(address).network # calculate and print network address
|
||||
print "/{0}".format(network_address)
|
||||
except:
|
||||
print "/rack-unknown" # print catch-all value if unable to calculate network address

* {bash Example}
|
||||
|
||||
+-------------------------------+
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
# Here's a bash example to show just how simple these scripts can be
|
||||
# Assuming we have flat network with everything on a single switch, we can fake a rack topology.
|
||||
# This could occur in a lab environment where we have limited nodes,like 2-8 physical machines on a unmanaged switch.
|
||||
# This may also apply to multiple virtual machines running on the same physical hardware.
|
||||
# The number of machines isn't important, but that we are trying to fake a network topology when there isn't one.
|
||||
#

||||

# / \
|

# +--------+ +--------+
|
||||
# |datanode| |namenode|
|
||||
# +--------+ +--------+
|
||||
#
|
||||
# With this network topology, we are treating each host as a rack. This is being done by taking the last octet
|
||||
# in the datanode's IP and prepending it with the word '/rack-'. The advantage for doing this is so HDFS
|
||||
# can create its 'off-rack' block copy.
|
||||
# 1) 'echo $@' will echo all ARGV values to xargs.
|
||||
# 2) 'xargs' will enforce that we print a single argv value per line
|
||||
# 3) 'awk' will split fields on dots and append the last field to the string '/rack-'. If awk
|
||||
# fails to split on four dots, it will still print '/rack-' last field value
|
||||
|
||||
echo $@ | xargs -n 1 | awk -F '.' '{print "/rack-"$NF}'
