Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5954: -------------------------------------- Hi Luke, you mean hflush in hadoop 2 less durable than hflush in hadoop 1. hsync is still better (even when it is not on the synchronous path, so there's a little gap where a client was told that everything is on disk when in fact it isn't). Filed HDFS-3979 (you know that :), just for the benefit of others reading here), which needs some testing to be committed. Since the hsync code is only in hadoop 2.1.0+ we'd need a new shim here for that version (or reflect the sh*t out of it). I'm still happy to commit this to 0.94.x. > Allow proper fsync support for HBase > ------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-5954 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5954 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Assignee: Lars Hofhansl > Fix For: 0.94.3, 0.96.0 > > Attachments: 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk.txt, 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v2.txt, > 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v3.txt, 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v4.txt, > 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v5.txt, 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v6.txt, hbase-hdfs-744.txt > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
