On each host running NameNode, check for any errors in the logs (/var/log/hadoop/hdfs/) and restart the NameNode host/process using Ambari Web. On each host running NameNode, run the netstat-tuplpn command to check if the NameNode process is bound to the correct network port. |
Percent JournalNodes Available | AGGREGATE |
