Fengnan Li commented on HDFS-14118:
-----------------------------------
For the config, how about I put something like `hadoop.domainname.resolver` in
core-default.xml which can set up the default domainnameresolver, i.e. dns.
this is the default one that can be used as long as it needs a domain name
resolver.
and in hdfs-site.xml, I keep the current config which is used specifically for
client failover per namespace/nameservice. If yarn wants to use the similarly
way, it can follow what hdfs does.

> Clients will need to know about routers to talk to the HDFS cluster
> (obviously), and having routers updating (adding/removing) will have to make
> every client change, which is a painful process.
> DNS can be used here to resolve the single domain name clients knows to a
> list of routers in the current config. However, DNS won't be able to consider
> only resolving to the working router based on certain health thresholds.
> There are some ways about how this can be solved. One way is to have a
> separate script to regularly check the status of the router and update the
> DNS records if a router fails the health thresholds. In this way, security
> might be carefully considered for this way. Another way is to have the client
> do the normal connecting/failover after they get the list of routers, which
> requires the change of current failover proxy provider.
