"dfsadmin -safemode > wait" doesn't quite work for this on a completely fresh cluster, since when > there are 0 blocks on the system, 100% of them are accounted for before any > DNs have reported. > This JIRA is to add a command which waits until a certain number of DNs have > reported as alive to the NN. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
