Andrew Wang updated HDFS-240: ----------------------------- Target Version/s: 3.0.0-alpha2 (was: ) > Should HDFS restrict the names used for files? > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-240 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-240 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 2.7.2 > Reporter: Robert Chansler > Assignee: John Zhuge > > When reviewing the consequences of HADOOP-6017 (the name system could not > start because a file name interpreted as a regex caused a fault), the > discussion turned to improving the test set for file system functions by > broadening the set of names used for testing. Presently, HDFS allows any name > without a slash. _Should the space of names be restricted?_ If most funny > names are unintended, maybe the user would benefit from an early error > indication. A contrary view is that restricting names is so 20th-century. > Should be or shouldn't we? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
