Akira AJISAKA commented on HDFS-2538: ------------------------------------- The test failure is not related to the latest patch. bq. What could possibly break by removing the dots? Unfortunately, users may use the scripts to run fsck which assume that dots are output in the console. [~kamrul], can you please update the document also? The document is in hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/site/apt/CommandsManual.apt.vm. I'm +1 once it is addressed. > option to disable fsck dots > ---------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2538 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2538 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.2.0 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Assignee: Mohammad Kamrul Islam > Priority: Minor > Labels: newbie > Attachments: HDFS-2538-branch-0.20-security-204.patch, > HDFS-2538-branch-0.20-security-204.patch, HDFS-2538-branch-1.0.patch, > HDFS-2538.1.patch, HDFS-2538.2.patch > > > this patch turns the dots during fsck off by default and provides an option > to turn them back on if you have a fetish for millions and millions of dots > on your terminal. i haven't done any benchmarks, but i suspect fsck is now > 300% faster to boot. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
