Maximum DataNode log size

avatar
Explorer

Hi all, 

I would like to set the total maximum size of DataNode log files to 2 GB (retaining maximum 2 log files). 

 

How should I proceed? 

 

I found these two parameters in HDFS configurations (in Cloudera Manager):

  • DataNode Max Log Size 
  • DataNode Maximum Log File Backups

I was thinking to set the DataNode Max Log Size = 1GB and the DataNode Maximum Log File Backups = 2 .

In this way 2 retained log files (1GB each) makes 2GB in total ...

 

Is it correct ?
