Kan Zhang commented on HDFS-592: -------------------------------- > I don't think any of the client method ever does this. I think create(), append(), addBlock() all capture their context pretty well. Although pipelineRecovery() is not perfect, it's still much better than getNewStampAndToken() which doesn't tell any context at all. > Allow client to get a new generation stamp from NameNode > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-592 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-592 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: Append Branch > Reporter: Hairong Kuang > Assignee: Hairong Kuang > Fix For: Append Branch > > Attachments: newGS.patch, newGS1.patch > > > This issue aims to add an API to ClientProtocol that fetches a new > generation stamp and an access token from NameNode to support append or > pipeline recovery. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
