Xiaoyu Yao commented on HDFS-9887: ---------------------------------- Filed HDFS-9914 for the fix. > WebHdfs socket timeouts should be configurable > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-9887 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9887 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: fs, webhdfs > Environment: all > Reporter: Austin Donnelly > Assignee: Austin Donnelly > Labels: easyfix, newbie > Fix For: 2.8.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-12827.001.patch, HADOOP-12827.002.patch, > HADOOP-12827.002.patch, HADOOP-12827.002.patch, HADOOP-12827.003.patch, > HADOOP-12827.004.patch > > Original Estimate: 0h > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
