The problem is applicable to only the following installs, that used hflush semantics in 0.20.x based releases. # 0.20.203 or later releases with append turned on (includes 1.0.x releases) # 0.20.2 + append branch releases with append turned on Installations without append turned on is not affected since blocks being written is not used. > 2.0 release upgrade must handle blocks being written from 1.0 > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3731 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3731 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: data-node > Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > Priority: Blocker > > Release 2.0 upgrades must handle blocks being written to (bbw) files from 1.0 > release.
