HDFS provides a distributed data copying facility through the DistCP from source to destination. If this data copying is within the hadoop cluster then it is referred to as inter cluster data copying. DistCP requires both source and destination to have a compatible or same version of hadoop.

How do I customize data placement on DataNodes (DN) of Hadoop cluster?

Let we change the default block size to 32 MB and replication factor to 1. Let Hadoop cluster consists of 4 DNs. Let input data size is 192 MB. Now I want to place data on DNs as following. DN1 and DN2 contain 2 blocks (32+32 = 64 MB) each and DN3 and DN4 contain 1 block (32 MB) each. Can it be possible? How to accomplish it?

Can we control data distribution and load balancing in Hadoop Cluster?

As I studied that data distribution, load balancing, fault tolerance are implicit in Hadoop. But I need to customize it, can we do that?

Two hadoop nodes on same machine while a second machine not joining the cluster

I have a test cluster of two machines, on both of them hadoop is installed. I have configured the hadoop cluster but on admin UI (as in the below picture) I see that two nodes are running on the same master machine, and that the other machine has no Hadoop node.

On master machine following services are running:

~$ jps 26310 ResourceManager 27593 Jps 26216 DataNode 26135 NameNode 26557 NodeManager 26701 JobHistoryServer

On the slave machine:

~$ jps 2614 DataNode 2920 Jps 2707 NodeManager

I don't why the slave is not joining the cluster (It was before). I tried to shutdown all servers on both machines and format HDFS then restarting everything but that didnot help. Any help to figure whats causing that behavior is appreciated.
