Answer 1

Correct Answer: File system Counters

Hadoop maintains built-in counters for every job that reports several metrics for each job. For example, there are built-in counters for the number of bytes and records processed, which helps to assure the expected amount of input was consumed and the expected amount of output was produced, etc.

Built-in counters are of three types:

• Mapreduce Task Counters
• File system counters
• Job Counters
