Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-2832: ----------------------------------- Jiahongchao, we don't expose any user API yet for HSM. This is going to be added in HDFS-5682. It might have been a mistake to advertise HSM in the release note at this stage of development, since I imagine we'll be getting a lot of questions like this. > Enable support for heterogeneous storages in HDFS - DN as a collection of > storages > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > 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 > Fix For: 3.0.0, 2.3.0 > > Attachments: 20130813-HeterogeneousStorage.pdf, > 20131125-HeterogeneousStorage-TestPlan.pdf, > 20131125-HeterogeneousStorage.pdf, > 20131202-HeterogeneousStorage-TestPlan.pdf, > 20131203-HeterogeneousStorage-TestPlan.pdf, H2832_20131107.patch, > editsStored, editsStored, h2832_20131023.patch, h2832_20131023b.patch, > h2832_20131025.patch, h2832_20131028.patch, h2832_20131028b.patch, > h2832_20131029.patch, h2832_20131103.patch, h2832_20131104.patch, > h2832_20131105.patch, h2832_20131107b.patch, h2832_20131108.patch, > h2832_20131110.patch, h2832_20131110b.patch, h2832_20131111.patch, > h2832_20131112.patch, h2832_20131112b.patch, h2832_20131114.patch, > h2832_20131118.patch, h2832_20131119.patch, h2832_20131119b.patch, > h2832_20131121.patch, h2832_20131122.patch, h2832_20131122b.patch, > h2832_20131123.patch, h2832_20131124.patch, h2832_20131202.patch, > h2832_20131203.patch, h2832_20131210.patch, h2832_20131211.patch, > h2832_20131211b.patch, h2832_branch-2_20131226.patch, > h2832_branch-2_20140103.patch > > > 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.
