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

> 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,
