Run HDFS pseudo mode in a docker container

Question

I'm trying to run a HDFS under pseudo mode in a docker container, configured with this page: https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/SingleCluster.html#Pseudo-Distributed_Operation , but I didn't use start-all.sh script as it isn't supposed to be able to do ssh, so I manually ran command bin/hdfs --daemon start namenode|datanode to start them one by one. The problem is I can see namenode started successfully, but datanode quited without any error message. the last piece of log from datanode is:

...

core-site.xml file:

<configuration>
    <property>
        <name>fs.defaultFS</name>
        <value>hdfs://localhost</value>
    </property>
</configuration>

And hdfs-site.xml is

<configuration>
    <property>
        <name>dfs.replication</name>
        <value>1</value>
    </property>

    <property>

    </property>

    <property>
        <name>dfs.datanode.data.dir</name>
        <value>/apps/hadoop/hdfs/data</value>
    </property>
</configuration>

Did I miss any thing from there?

Answer 1

I think it is base image issue, I was using alpine, once I changed to centos, datanode works! must be something missing from alpine, appreciate if anyone knows what is it, as centos based image eventually will much more bigger then alpine.
