Hadoop job asks to disable safe node

Question

Hadoop job is asking to disable safe mode manually. It says the resources are not available. How to disable safe mode?

Answer 1

You can leave safemode by using the following command:

hadoop dfsadmin -safemode leave

The documentation touches briefly on other safemode states. However, typically your Hadoop instance enters safe mode for a reason, so this may not be a permanent fix.
