Konstantin Shvachko commented on HADOOP-2404: --------------------------------------------- > That's a change from what you stated in action_12550831. I don't see any contradiction. Besides I already said that many times after that, if you read a little bit further down [#action_12551673] and [#action_12553565]. Providing partial conversion is a compromise, which I am willing to accept. This is temporary for one release, that is why all related code is deprecated in my patch. > You imply that I am asking this issue to fix a few instances of a widespread > problem unrelated to the issue. "some processing" of exactly these parameters was introduced in HADOOP-1085. [I opposed it then.|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1085?focusedCommentId=12483800#action_12483800] You just committed it. If dozens of files is not widespread then what is. The only thing I agree with you upon is that configuration needs accessors. But I do not agree that they should be introdueced in this patch, which will lead to massive changes, and I do not support *static* accessors, and I do not see any of these is supported by anybody else. This argument is going on for almost a month now. I do not find it productive. Unless the compromise proposed by Dhruba is acceptable for you, I am planning to submit the bug fix mentioned by Devaraj in a separate issue, and let somebody else deal with this one. I mean, people can have different opinions, what do you do with that. > HADOOP-2185 breaks compatibility with hadoop-0.15.0 > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2404 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2404 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: conf > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Konstantin Shvachko > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: ConfigConvert.patch, ConfigConvert2.patch, > ConfigurationConverter.patch > > > HADOOP-2185 removed the following configuration parameters: > {noformat} > dfs.secondary.info.port > dfs.datanode.port > dfs.info.port > mapred.job.tracker.info.port > tasktracker.http.port > {noformat} > and changed the following configuration parameters: > {noformat} > dfs.secondary.info.bindAddress > dfs.datanode.bindAddress > dfs.info.bindAddress > mapred.job.tracker.info.bindAddress > mapred.task.tracker.report.bindAddress > tasktracker.http.bindAddress > {noformat} > without a backward-compatibility story. > Lots are applications/cluster-configurations are prone to fail hence, we need > a way to keep things working as-is for 0.16.0 and remove them for 0.17.0. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
