Todd Lipcon resolved HDFS-3795. ------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: QuorumJournalManager (HDFS-3077) Hadoop Flags: Reviewed > QJM: validate journal dir at startup > ------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-3795 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3795 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: ha > Affects Versions: QuorumJournalManager (HDFS-3077) > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Priority: Minor > Fix For: QuorumJournalManager (HDFS-3077) > > Attachments: hdfs-3795.txt, hdfs-3795.txt > > > Currently, the JN does not validate the configured journal directory until it > tries to write into it. This is counter-intuitive for users, since they would > expect to find out about a misconfiguration at startup time, rather than on > first access. Additionally, two testers accidentally configured the journal > dir to be a URI, which the code accidentally understood as a relative path > ({{CWD/file:/foo/bar}}. > We should validate the config at startup to be an accessible absolute path. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
