Ozone - Object store for Hadoop
==============================
Introduction
------------
Ozone is an object store for Hadoop. It is a redundant, distributed object
store build by leveraging primitives present in HDFS. Ozone supports REST
API for accessing the store.
Getting Started
---------------
Ozone is a work in progress and currently lives in its own branch. To
use it, you have to build a package by yourself and deploy a cluster.
### Building Ozone
To build Ozone, please checkout the hadoop sources from github. Then
checkout the ozone branch, HDFS-7240 and build it.
- `git checkout HDFS-7240`
- `mvn clean package -DskipTests=true -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -Pdist -Dtar -DskipShade`
skipShade is just to make compilation faster and not really required.
This will give you a tarball in your distribution directory. This is the
tarball that can be used for deploying your hadoop cluster. Here is an
example of the tarball that will be generated.
* `~/apache/hadoop/hadoop-dist/target/${project.version}.tar.gz`
At this point we have an option to setup a physical cluster or run ozone via
docker.
Running Ozone via Docker
------------------------
This assumes that you have a running docker setup on the machine. Please run
these following commands to see ozone in action.
Go to the directory where the docker compose files exist.
- `cd dev-support/compose/ozone`
Tell docker to start ozone, this will start a KSM, SCM and a single datanode in
the background.
- `docker-compose up -d`
Now let us run some work load against ozone, to do that we will run corona.
This will log into the datanode and run bash.
- `docker-compose exec datanode bash`
- `cd hadoop/bin`
Now you can run the oz command shell or corona the ozone load generator.
This is the command to run corona.
- `./hdfs corona -mode offline -validateWrites -numOfVolumes 1 -numOfBuckets 10 -numOfKeys 100`
You can checkout the KSM UI to see the requests information.
- `http://localhost:9874/`
If you need more datanode you can scale up:
- `docker-compose scale datanode=3`
Running Ozone using a real cluster
----------------------------------
Please proceed to setup a hadoop cluster by creating the hdfs-site.xml and
other configuration files that are needed for your cluster.
### Ozone Configuration
Ozone relies on its own configuration file called `ozone-site.xml`. It is
just for convenience and ease of management -- you can add these settings
to `hdfs-site.xml`, if you don't want to keep ozone settings separate.
This document refers to `ozone-site.xml` so that ozone settings are in one
place and not mingled with HDFS settings.
* _*ozone.enabled*_ This is the most important setting for ozone.
Currently, Ozone is an opt-in subsystem of HDFS. By default, Ozone is
disabled. Setting this flag to `true` enables ozone in the HDFS cluster.
Here is an example,
```
ozone.enabled
True
```
* _*ozone.metadata.dirs*_ Ozone is designed with modern hardware
in mind. It tries to use SSDs effectively. So users can specify where the
metadata must reside. Usually you pick your fastest disk (SSD if
you have them on your nodes). KSM, SCM and datanode will write the metadata
to these disks. This is a required setting, if this is missing Ozone will
fail to come up. Here is an example,
```
ozone.metadata.dirs
/data/disk1/meta
```
* _*ozone.scm.names*_ Ozone is build on top of container framework (See Ozone
Architecture TODO). Storage container manager(SCM) is a distributed block
service which is used by ozone and other storage services.
This property allows datanodes to discover where SCM is, so that
datanodes can send heartbeat to SCM. SCM is designed to be highly available
and datanodes assume there are multiple instances of SCM which form a highly
available ring. The HA feature of SCM is a work in progress. So we
configure ozone.scm.names to be a single machine. Here is an example,
```
ozone.scm.names
scm.hadoop.apache.org
```
* _*ozone.scm.datanode.id*_ Each datanode that speaks to SCM generates an ID
just like HDFS. This is an optional setting. Please note:
This path will be created by datanodes if it doesn't exist already. Here is an
example,
```
ozone.scm.datanode.id
/data/disk1/scm/meta/node/datanode.id
```
* _*ozone.scm.block.client.address*_ Storage Container Manager(SCM) offers a
set of services that can be used to build a distributed storage system. One
of the services offered is the block services. KSM and HDFS would use this
service. This property describes where KSM can discover SCM's block service
endpoint. There is corresponding ports etc, but assuming that we are using
default ports, the server address is the only required field. Here is an
example,
```
ozone.scm.block.client.address
scm.hadoop.apache.org
```
* _*ozone.ksm.address*_ KSM server address. This is used by Ozonehandler and
Ozone File System.
```
ozone.ksm.address
ksm.hadoop.apache.org
```
Here is a quick summary of settings needed by Ozone.
| Setting | Value | Comment |
|--------------------------------|------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|
| ozone.enabled | True | This enables SCM and containers in HDFS cluster. |
| ozone.metadata.dirs | file path | The metadata will be stored here. |
| ozone.scm.names | SCM server name | Hostname:port or or IP:port address of SCM. |
| ozone.scm.block.client.address | SCM server name and port | Used by services like KSM |
| ozone.scm.client.address | SCM server name and port | Used by client side |
| ozone.scm.datanode.address | SCM server name and port | Used by datanode to talk to SCM |
| ozone.ksm.address | KSM server name | Used by Ozone handler and Ozone file system. |
Here is a working example of`ozone-site.xml`.
```
ozone.enabled
True
ozone.metadata.dirs
/data/disk1/ozone/meta
ozone.scm.names
127.0.0.1
ozone.scm.client.address
127.0.0.1:9860
ozone.scm.block.client.address
127.0.0.1:9863
ozone.scm.datanode.address
127.0.0.1:9861
ozone.ksm.address
127.0.0.1:9874
```
### Starting Ozone
Ozone is designed to run concurrently with HDFS. The simplest way to [start
HDFS](../hadoop-common/ClusterSetup.html) is to run `start-dfs.sh` from the
`$HADOOP/sbin/start-dfs.sh`. Once HDFS
is running, please verify it is fully functional by running some commands like
- *./hdfs dfs -mkdir /usr*
- *./hdfs dfs -ls /*
Once you are sure that HDFS is running, start Ozone. To start ozone, you
need to start SCM and KSM. Currently we assume that both KSM and SCM
is running on the same node, this will change in future.
- `./hdfs --daemon start scm`
- `./hdfs --daemon start ksm`
if you would like to start HDFS and Ozone together, you can do that by running
a single command.
- `$HADOOP/sbin/start-ozone.sh`
This command will start HDFS and then start the ozone components.
Once you have ozone running you can use these ozone [shell](./OzoneCommandShell.html)
commands to create a volume, bucket and keys.
### Diagnosing issues
Ozone tries not to pollute the existing HDFS streams of configuration and
logging. So ozone logs are by default configured to be written to a file
called `ozone.log`. This is controlled by the settings in `log4j.properties`
file in the hadoop configuration directory.
Here is the log4j properties that are added by ozone.
```
#
# Add a logger for ozone that is separate from the Datanode.
#
#log4j.debug=true
log4j.logger.org.apache.hadoop.ozone=DEBUG,OZONE,FILE
# Do not log into datanode logs. Remove this line to have single log.
log4j.additivity.org.apache.hadoop.ozone=false
# For development purposes, log both to console and log file.
log4j.appender.OZONE=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.OZONE.Threshold=info
log4j.appender.OZONE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.OZONE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} [%t] %-5p \
%X{component} %X{function} %X{resource} %X{user} %X{request} - %m%n
# Real ozone logger that writes to ozone.log
log4j.appender.FILE=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.FILE.File=${hadoop.log.dir}/ozone.log
log4j.appender.FILE.Threshold=debug
log4j.appender.FILE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.FILE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} [%t] %-5p \
(%F:%L) %X{function} %X{resource} %X{user} %X{request} - \
%m%n
```
If you would like to have a single datanode log instead of ozone stuff
getting written to ozone.log, please remove this line or set this to true.
` log4j.additivity.org.apache.hadoop.ozone=false`
On the SCM/KSM side, you will be able to see
- `hadoop-hdfs-ksm-hostname.log`
- `hadoop-hdfs-scm-hostname.log`
Please file any issues you see under [Object store in HDFS (HDFS-7240)](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7240)
as this is still a work in progress.
