Matt Foley commented on HADOOP-7314: ------------------------------------ Jeff, your above comment https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7314?focusedCommentId=13064781&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13064781 said: bq. This portion of the patch is actually for trunk only. The 0.20s patch for MAPREDUCE-2489 contains all the necessary changes for 0.20.205 I assumed that meant this patch for HADOOP-7314 did not need to be back-ported. Is MAPREDUCE-2489 not actually inclusive? > Add support for throwing UnknownHostException when a host doesn't resolve > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7314 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7314 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0, 0.23.0 > Reporter: Jeffrey Naisbitt > Assignee: Jeffrey Naisbitt > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-7314-0.20s.patch, HADOOP-7314-v2.patch, > HADOOP-7314-v3.patch, HADOOP-7314.patch > > > As part of MAPREDUCE-2489, we need support for having the resolve methods > (for DNS mapping) throw UnknownHostExceptions.
