Hi all,

Regarding this issue, it must be said the new cluster for storage is
finally working. This new cluster is based on a modern Hadoop and the
problem regarding offsets in WebHDFS should be fixed.

As said, this cluster is only suited for storage, not computing (a second
cluster specifically addressing computing will be released in a few
weeks). So, if your use case is about storing data in HDFS and consuming
it through WebHDFS, with no Hive, no MapReduce, then you are ready to move
from the ³old² cluster (cosmos.lab.fiware.org) to the new one
(storage.cosmos.lab.fiware.org). If you are interested, let me now and
I¹ll provision the account and I¹ll migrate the data from one cluster to
the other.

Regards,
Francisco

>>> Dear FIWARE Staff,
>>> I would like to report a potential issue on the *Cosmos Global
>>>Instance*.
>>> We are using Cosmos to store input files for Hadoop jobs and their
>>>related
>>> output. We are transferring them from/to a remote back-end through the
>>> WebHDFS API.
>>> During outbound transfers of large files from Cosmos, the need to split
>>>the
>>> file content in parts has risen. If we use a simple OPEN operation like
>>> *http://<HOST>:<PORT>/webhdfs/v1/<PATH>?op=OPEN *
>>> the transfer is interrupted after 2 minutes even if the response has
>>>not
>>> transferred completely to the client. This should due to the timeout
>>> configuration of the HTTP Server deployed on Cosmos.
>>> As suggested by the WebHDFS API Doc
>>> <https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r1.0.4/webhdfs.html#OPEN>, one should
>>> consider to transfer single parts of the requested file by setting
>>>*offset*
>>> and *length* parameters to complete the request successfully.
>>> The issue we found is that the *length* parameter seems to be ignored
>>>by
>>> the HTTP Server.
>>> For example, if we execute the following
>>> *http://<HOST>:<PORT>/webhdfs/v1/<PATH>?op=OPEN&offset=100&length=10*
>>> on a 200 bytes file, we would get the last 100 bytes of the file
>>>itself,
>>> and not bytes from 101 to 110.
>>> We checked the current version of Hadoop deployed on Cosmos and we
>>>found
>>> out that release *0.20.2-cdh3u6 *is currently running. By giving a look
>>>to
>>> the HDFS changelogs
>>>
>>><https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r0.23.11/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs
>>>/
>>>CHANGES.txt>,
>>> there is an improvement (HDFS-3794) committed in release 0.23.3 that
>>>could
>>> be potentially related to the reported occurrence.
