PM94605: BIGINSIGHTS 2.1 FILES TAB INFORMATION DETAILS USES NUMBER OF DIRECTORIES AND FILES AS THE SIZE.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Directory size is displayed in the Size column of the
  File/Directory details table. The BI 2.0 release shows the size
  of the directory as the sum of its contents including
  sub-directories and files. For the BI 2.1 release, the directory
   size is shown as the total number of sub-directories and files
  contained by the directory selected. Therefore, user cannot tell
   the size of a directory on the Files tab anymore for the BI 2.1
   release, due to the change of behavior.
  

Local fix

• Use Hadoop fs command to check the file size.
   Option1: A user with the BigInsights Data Admin role can run
  Hadoop FS command "hadoop fs -du /<full_path_of_dir>" from the
  command line prompt on the Files tab, to display a list of
  sub-directories contained and their size in bytes.
   Option2: User with SSH access to the BI Console node of the
  cluster can also SSH to the BI Console node and then run the
  same command as the BigInsights Administrator User (biadmin by
  default)
