Srikanth Sundarrajan commented on FALCON-1977:
----------------------------------------------
[~venkatnrangan], After upgrade to 2.7.x, will Falcon continue to work against
a 2.6.x hadoop installation ? More specifically while we are moving the compile
time dependency for Falcon, what would the runtime dependency be ?
> Move falcon-main hadoop version to match falcon-unit and falcon-regression
> hadoop versions

> Falcon-unit requires Hadoop 2.7.x APIs. This is different from the falcon
> main which uses 2.6.2 - There were some discussions on keeping falcon
> version to 2.6.2
> As part of cleaning up hadoop-2 profile, it would be good to move falcon-unit
> to addons like hivedr, hdfs-snapshot-mirroring etc which require higher
> versions of components and enabled with a specific profile. That way, users
> can build Falcon after explicitly updating the component versions.
> But given that Falcon unit (an integration test) and falcon regression both
> require higher version of Hadoop, it might be good to think about moving
> Falcon base to also default to Hadoop 2.7.1. Will create a separate JIRA for
> that.
