Sorry guys,just a simple question but I cannot find exact question on google.
The question about what’s dfs.replication mean? If I made one file named filmdata.txt in hdfs, if I set dfs.replication=1,so is it totally one file(one filmdata.txt)?or besides the main file(filmdata.txt) hadoop will create another replication file.
shortly say:if set dfs.replication=1,there are totally one filmdata.txt,or two filmdata.txt?
Thanks in Advance

The total number of files in the file system will be what’s specified in the dfs.replication factor. So, if you set dfs.replication=1, then there will be only one copy of the file in the file system.
Check the Apache Documentation for the other configuration parameters.
