Xiao Chen commented on HDFS-9804: --------------------------------- Thanks again Zhe. bq. The reported failures are unrelated to Balancer. Yep, I posted a patch to HDFS-9766 on that. bq. LMK if you think it should go into branch-2 as well. I think it's Okay to not go into branch-2. If the cluster is super imbalanced, the balancer process may not finish within the TGT max renew time, but I guess that's a rare case and no one seems to be complaining. > Allow long-running Balancer to login with keytab > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-9804 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9804 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: balancer & mover, security > Reporter: Xiao Chen > Assignee: Xiao Chen > Labels: supportability > Fix For: 3.0.0 > > Attachments: HDFS-9804.01.patch, HDFS-9804.02.patch, > HDFS-9804.03.patch > > > From the discussion of HDFS-9698, it might be nice to allow the balancer to > run as a daemon and login from a keytab. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
