Aaron T. Myers commented on HADOOP-8185: ---------------------------------------- Sorry Arpit, I should have mentioned these earlier. Other changes that I'd like to see: # I think you have a typo in the "-nonInteractive" option. "Interactive" is one word, and the "a" should not be capitalized. # It's not obvious from the description of "-nonInteractive" how it's different from regular "-format". We should say explicitly something like "with no options given, prompt the user if there is a pre-existing name dir in the local file system." Likewise, "-nonInteractive" should say explicitly "do not prompt the user, but fail to format if directories already exist." > Update namenode -format documentation and add -nonInteractive and -force > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-8185 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8185 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.24.0 > Reporter: Arpit Gupta > Assignee: Arpit Gupta > Attachments: HADOOP-8185.patch, HADOOP-8185.patch > > > documentation changes related to HDFS-3094 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
