Sanjay Radia commented on HDFS-222: ----------------------------------- Handling quotas correctly is going to be hard. Especially given the new problems we saw in HDFS-677 wrt to renaming between directories when the quota is exhausted in the target. While this can be coded, I don't think the complexity is worth it. Perhaps we should restrict the operation to concat files in the same directory. > Support for concatenating of files into a single file > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-222 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-222 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Venkatesh S > Assignee: Boris Shkolnik > Attachments: HDFS-222-1.patch, HDFS-222-2.patch, HDFS-222-3.patch, > HDFS-222-4.patch, HDFS-222-5.patch, HDFS-222-6.patch, HDFS-222-7.patch, > HDFS-222.patch > > > An API to concatenate files of same size and replication factor on HDFS into > a single larger file. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
