Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-1547: ----------------------------------- One thing I've thought about a few times that I think should be considered: rather than having separate include/exclude/decom files, why not have one file with a very simple .properties style format? {code} dn1 = active dn2 = active dn3 = decomission dn4 = exclude {code} This way we don't have to enumerate all the combinatorics like "what if it's in both include and exclude? what if it's in decomission but not include?" > Improve decommission mechanism > ------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-1547 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1547 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > Assignee: Suresh Srinivas > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > > Current decommission mechanism driven using exclude file has several issues. > This bug proposes some changes in the mechanism for better manageability.
