Andy Isaacson commented on HDFS-3677: ------------------------------------- Am I reading the code right that a given edits dir must be listed in *both* {{dfs.namenode.edits.dir}} and {{dfs.namenode.edits.dir.required}} for the latter to take effect, and if a directory is listed only in {{.required}} it will be silently ignored? If so, that's a pretty bad admin experience. > dfs.namenode.edits.dir.required missing from hdfs-default.xml > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3677 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3677 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Labels: newbie > > This config should be documented. It's useful for cases where the user would > like to ensure that (eg) an NFS filer always has the most up-to-date edits. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
