Akira AJISAKA commented on HDFS-8944: ------------------------------------- Thanks [~rakeshr] for the comment. Updated the release note. I don't think this issue breaks backward compatibility because camel case is supported after the patch, however, this issue and HADOOP-10901 (Thanks Kengo for the link!) should be discussed. Obviously I'm +1 for make them case insensitive for usability. > Make dfsadmin command options case insensitive > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-8944 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8944 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Akira AJISAKA > Assignee: Akira AJISAKA > Attachments: HDFS-8944.001.patch > > > Now dfsadmin command options are case sensitive except allowSnapshot and > disallowSnapshot.
