Vijay updated CASSANDRA-3101: ----------------------------- Attachment: 0001-3101-throw-IOE-while-calling-bin-ln-v3.patch I miss read the previous message hence removed it sorry, plz find the updated. thanks! > Should check for errors when calling /bin/ln > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3101 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3101 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 0.4 > Reporter: paul cannon > Assignee: Vijay > Priority: Minor > Labels: lhf > Fix For: 1.0.6 > > Attachments: 0001-0001-throw-IOE-while-calling-bin-ln-v2.patch, > 0001-3101-throw-IOE-while-calling-bin-ln-v3.patch, > 0001-3101-throw-IOE-while-calling-bin-ln.patch > > > It looks like cassandra.utils.CLibrary.createHardLinkWithExec() does not > check for any errors in the execution of the hard-link-making utility. This > could be bad if, for example, the user has put the snapshot directory on a > different filesystem from the data directory. The hard linking would fail and > the sstable snapshots would not exist, but no error would be reported. > It does look like errors with the more direct JNA link() call are handled > correctly- an exception is thrown. The WithExec version should probably do > the same thing. > Definitely it would be enough to check the process exit value from /bin/ln > for nonzero in the *nix case, but I don't know whether 'fsutil hardlink > create' or 'cmd /c mklink /H' return nonzero on failure. > For bonus points, use any output from the Process's error stream in the text > of the exception, to aid in debugging problems. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
