Ming Ma commented on HDFS-9005: ------------------------------- Currently it caches the data. It doesn't poll the script periodically. It works for our environment as the upgrade domains of a given node doesn't change. If the physical machine is moved around; it will have a new host name and upgrade domain. But I agree that if we need to dynamic update of upgrade domain or network location for a given node, we need manual or automatic refresh regardless if we use script or XML. > Provide support for upgrade domain script > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-9005 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9005 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Ming Ma > > As part of the upgrade domain feature, we need to provide a mechanism to > specify upgrade domain for each datanode. One way to accomplish that is to > allow admins specify an upgrade domain script that takes DN ip or hostname as > input and return the upgrade domain. Then namenode will use it at run time to > set {{DatanodeInfo}}'s upgrade domain string. The configuration can be > something like: > {noformat} > <property> > <name>dfs.namenode.upgrade.domain.script.file.name</name> > <value>/etc/hadoop/conf/upgrade-domain.sh</value> > </property> > {noformat} > just like topology script, -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
