                 Key: HADOOP-842
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-842
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.9.2
            Reporter: Hairong Kuang
         Assigned To: Hairong Kuang
             Fix For: 0.10.0


The open method returns a list of blocks that belong to a file and, for each 
block, a list of datanodes that contain the block.To improve reading 
efficiency, I'd like to return the list of datanodes in the order of its 
distance to the client machine. So I suggest that we make the open method to 
take an additional argument clientMachine which is in the format of 
hostname:port#.
