Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-9847:
-------------------------------------
[~linyiqun], do you want to update the patch to address Chris's feedback?
bq. Adding new methods to parameterize getTimeDuration is unnecessary. The
caller should cast the result if it's losing precision.
We can punt the {{w}}/{{y}} decision to a separate Jira. Adding support for the
remaining suffixes will be a step forward.
> HDFS configuration without time unit name should accept friendly time units

> In HDFS-9821, it talks about the issue of leting existing keys use friendly
> units e.g. 60s, 5m, 1d, 6w etc. But there are som configuration key names
> contain time unit name, like {{dfs.blockreport.intervalMsec}}, so we can make
> some other configurations which without time unit name to accept friendly
> time units. The time unit {{seconds}} is frequently used in hdfs. We can
> updating this configurations first.
