Eli Collins commented on HDFS-2983: ----------------------------------- There's no reason we should have to upgrade the configuration to perform a rolling upgrade. > Relax the build version check to permit rolling upgrades within a release > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2983 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2983 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Eli Collins > Assignee: Aaron T. Myers > Attachments: HDFS-2983.patch > > > Currently the version check for DN/NN communication is strict (it checks the > exact svn revision or git hash, Storage#getBuildVersion calls > VersionInfo#getRevision), which prevents rolling upgrades across any > releases. Once we have the PB-base RPC in place (coming soon to branch-23) > we'll have the necessary pieces in place to loosen this restriction, though > perhaps it takes another 23 minor release or so before we're ready to commit > to making the minor versions compatible. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
