> A long time ago HADOOP-497 introduced the option to specify a specific 
> nameserver to use when looking up the hostname of an interface specified in 
> the config (eg by {{dfs.datanode.dns.interface}}). This feature is not in 
> MR2, and I dont't think it makes sense for HDFS since HDFS stopped 
> advertising DNs by hostname a long time ago (HADOOP-985). Also per 
> HADOOP-8134 and HBASE-4109, I don't think this feature works, as it returns 
> the PTR record verbatim instead of the hostname (eg PTR record may have a 
> trailing ".", ".lan" etc that may not resolve).
> How about we remove this feature from trunk and 23?   We can deprecate in 
> 1.0, though I doubt anyone is using it.  This is an incompatible change. DNS 
> is annotated LimitedPrivate and Unstable but HBase uses it so will file need 
> to file a jira there (they use this via HBASE-1279 and HBASE-1279).
