Andrew Purtell commented on HDFS-2832: -------------------------------------- {quote} We will open Jiras to track these issues and folks interested in contributing can collaborate on this work. Please reach out to me. - Suresh Srinivas, Sanjay Radia and Arpit Agarwal {quote} As you know there is an email from me reaching out to you on exactly the topic of tiered storage in your inbox still waiting for a response. I know conclusively at least Suresh and Sanjay received a copy. I sent that at the invitation of one of your colleagues last month. Perhaps I can conclude from the silence that email is an incorrect way to "reach out", in which case I would welcome your participation on HDFS-4762 in a truly inclusive community process of collaboration, rather than dubious invitations, based on my personal experience, here. > Enable support for heterogeneous storages in HDFS > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2832 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2832 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 0.24.0 > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > Assignee: Suresh Srinivas > > HDFS currently supports configuration where storages are a list of > directories. Typically each of these directories correspond to a volume with > its own file system. All these directories are homogeneous and therefore > identified as a single storage at the namenode. I propose, change to the > current model where Datanode * is a * storage, to Datanode * is a collection > * of strorages. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
