stack commented on HADOOP-8230:
-------------------------------
bq. That is the behavior I want a user to be able to turn off with a flag.
Do you think there many users who'd want to do this Suresh? I'd think the
number few and if there any still conscious this option even exists, they are
probably suffering from the FUD that sync is buggy/broke. We should help them
get over their misconception? (Pardon me if I am way off on this. Just
offering an opinion from outer-left-field)
> Enable sync by default and disable append

> Per HDFS-3120 for 1.x let's:
> - Always enable the sync path, which is currently only enabled if
> dfs.support.append is set
> - Remove the dfs.support.append configuration option. We'll keep the code
> paths though in case we ever fix append on branch-1, in which case we can add
> the config option back
