LiuLei commented on HDFS-3429: ------------------------------ hi, I want to fix the problem in hadoop-0.20.2, for compatibility, the DataTransferProtocol.DATA_TRANSFER_VERSION value need to be modified. DataTransferProtocol.DATA_TRANSFER_VERSION value is 16 in my current hadoop version. I want to modify the value to 17, can I do that? If not, what value is appropriate? > DataNode reads checksums even if client does not need them > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3429 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3429 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: data-node, performance > Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Attachments: hdfs-3429-0.20.2.patch, hdfs-3429.txt, hdfs-3429.txt, > hdfs-3429.txt > > > Currently, even if the client does not want to verify checksums, the datanode > reads them anyway and sends them over the wire. This means that performance > improvements like HBase's application-level checksums don't have much benefit > when reading through the datanode, since the DN is still causing seeks into > the checksum file. > (Credit goes to Dhruba for discovering this - filing on his behalf) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
