Konstantin Boudnik commented on HDFS-708:
-----------------------------------------

Looks pretty good to me and sophisticated enough to be useful. 

An additional requirement I'd like to add is about interfacing with this tool 
from other Java applications. E.g. I'd propose to have an API which will allow 
to something like
{noformat}
 SLive sLiveTool = new SLive(Configuration conf);
 sLiveTool.execute();
{noformat}

Having such or similar API will allow a seamless integration with cluster-based 
framework (HADOOP-6332) to create end-to-end automated load and stress tests.

> It would be good to have a tool for automatic stress testing HDFS, which 
> would provide IO-intensive load on HDFS cluster.
> The idea is to start the tool, let it run overnight, and then be able to 
> analyze possible failures.
