# 为什么ZooKeeper Server出现java.io.IOException: Len的错误日志
#### 问题
在父目录中创建大量的znode之后，当ZooKeeper客户端尝试在单个请求中获取该父目录中的所有子节点时，将返回失败。
客户端日志，如下所示：
```

#### 回答
在单个父目录中创建大量的znode后，当客户端尝试在单个请求中获取所有子节点时，服务端将无法返回，因为结果将超出可存储在znode上的数据的最大长度。
为了避免这个问题，应该根据客户端应用的实际情况将"jute.maxbuffer"参数配置为一个更高的值。
"jute.maxbuffer"只能设置为Java系统属性，且没有zookeeper前缀。如果要将"jute.maxbuffer"的值设为X，在ZooKeeper客户端或服务端启动时传入以下系统属性：-Djute.maxbuffer=X。
例如，将参数值设置为4MB：-Djute.maxbuffer=0x400000。
表1配置参数 
| **参数**         | **描述**                                                                                                                                                                                         | **默认值** |
|:---|:---|:---|
| jute.maxbuffer | 指定可以存储在znode中的数据的最大长度。单位是Byte。默认值为0xfffff，即低于1MB。 说明： 如果更改此选项，则必须在所有服务器和客户端上设置该系统属性，否则将出现问题。 | 0xfffff |
