I would propose to > change it to be only block id. This is based on the following properties of > the dfs cluster: > 1. On each datanode only one replica of block exists. Therefore there is only > one generation of a block. > 2. NameNode has only one entry for a block in its blocks map. > With this change, search for a block/replica's meta information is easier > since most of the time we know a block's id but may not know its generation > stamp. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
