Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-5321:
--------------------------------------

Hey folks, sorry to come into this JIRA late, but I'm a bit concerned about 
making this incompatible change in a minor release. I fully realize that the 
functionality is still there if users rewrite their applications or URIs to 
include the non-default port, but why do we think that's a reasonable change to 
require upon a minor version upgrade?

> Currently there are multiple configuration keys that control the ports that 
> the NameNode and DataNode listen to, and the default ports that the 
> hftp/webhdfs clients are connecting to.
> Below is a quick summary of these configuration:
> || Keys || Description ||
> | dfs.namenode.http-address | The address that the namenode http server binds 
> to |
> | dfs.namenode.https-address | The address that the namenode https server 
> binds to |
> | dfs.http.port | The default port that the hftp/webhdfs client use to 
> connect to the remote server|
> | dfs.https.port | The default port that the hsftp client use to connect to 
> the remote server|
> I propose to deprecate dfs.http.port and dfs.https.port to avoid potential 
> confusions (e.g., HDFS-5316). Note that this removes no functionality, since 
> the users can specify ports in hftp / webhdfs URLs when they need to connect 
> to HDFS servers with non-default ports.
