Hi! Could someone tell me about the status of symbolic link support in HDFS (HDFS-245)?
It looks like a patch is merged with latest trunk. So I would like to know how good it works and whether or not the patch is applicable for the current release of Hadoop. We just start testing HDFS as a part of our ftp mirror site (http://ftp.kddilabs.jp/). It works fine so far. But if HDFS supports symlink feature, we could save lots of capacity :-) Thanks. Yasu
