Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-4849: --------------------------------------- Missed adding this in the previous comment. This jira started out to be much larger in scope. Instead of changing the summary and focusing on reduced scope, I suggest creating a subtask. That way there is no mismatch between the discussions in the jira and the summary + patch. > Idempotent create and append operations. > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-4849 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4849 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: namenode > Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha > Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko > Assignee: Konstantin Shvachko > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: idempotentCreate.patch, idempotentCreate.patch > > > create, append and delete operations can be made idempotent. This will reduce > chances for a job or other app failures when NN fails over. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
