Wei-Chiu Chuang commented on HDFS-9887:
---------------------------------------
I think this patch is not complete -- if for some reason SSL configuration
throws an exception, the socket timeouts will not be configured, even if the
connection is supposed to be webhdfs only, not swebhdfs.
> WebHdfs socket timeouts should be configurable

>
> WebHdfs client connections use sockets with fixed timeouts of 60 seconds to
> connect, and 60 seconds for reads.
> This is a problem because I am trying to use WebHdfs to access an archive
> storage system which can take minutes to hours to return the requested data
> over WebHdfs.
> The fix is to add new configuration file options to allow these 60s defaults
> to be customised in hdfs-site.xml.
> If the new configuration options are not present, the behavior is unchanged
> from before.
