hadoop - Datanode not starts correctly

Question

I am trying to install Hadoop 2.2.0 in pseudo-distributed mode. While I am trying to start the datanode services it is showing the following error, can anyone please tell how to resolve this?

You can do the following method,

copy to clipboard datanode clusterID for your example, CID-8bf63244-0510-4db6-a949-8f74b50f2be9

and run following command under HADOOP_HOME/bin directory

./hdfs namenode -format -clusterId CID-8bf63244-0510-4db6-a949-8f74b50f2be9

then this code formatted the namenode with datanode cluster ids.
