jay vyas commented on BIGTOP-952:
---------------------------------

Its good to move away from bash, but i think the tarball approach will reduce 
usability of the unified hcfs semantics provided in init-hdfs.sh.

Thus, as the the latter patch in BIGTOP-1200  we've defined a json text file 
which ANY DFS initializer can easily parse and use.  

Any chance we can re-roll this patch to use that Jsonfile , rather than tarball 
? 

> init-hdfs.sh is dog slow. Let's replace it with a single VM call and better 
> layout management

> As has been proposed in [this 
> patch|https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12575644/untarHdfs.groovy]
>  by [~rvs] there's a very efficient way of creating layout in HDFS using a 
> tarfile and Groovy script with direct call into DFS APIs. 
> Let's making it happen.
