I could see encryption feature has exposed APIs like, HdfsFileStatus has {{#getFileEncryptionInfo()}} exposed and FileStatus contains {{#isEncrypted()}} flag, to tell whether the underlying file or directory is encrypted or not. imho, EC could expose APIs in similar lines. > Add isErasureCoded() API to FileStatus class > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-13715 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13715 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha1 > Reporter: Wei-Chiu Chuang > Assignee: Wei-Chiu Chuang > > Per the discussion in > [HDFS-10971|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10971?focusedCommentId=15567108&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15567108] > I would like to add a new API {{isErasureCoded()}} to {{FileStatus}} so that > tools and downstream applications can tell if it needs to treat a file > differently. > Hadoop tools that can benefit from this effort include: distcp and > teragen/terasort. > Downstream applications such as flume or hbase may also benefit from it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
