Konstantin Shvachko commented on HADOOP-2404: --------------------------------------------- Nah, this won't work either. Sorry missed that point when we talked. The new property actually combines values from two old names, and the old names have different value types. E.g., {code} dfs.http.bindAddress = dfs.info.bindAddress + dfs.info.port {code} So I need to pass 2 deprecated names and one new. This does not sound very generic already, besides I will need to specify the values of the old parameters, which makes it messy. > 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.
