Thank you Vinod! FYI: 2.7.3 will be a bit special release.
HDFS-8791 bumped up the datanode layout version, so rolling downgrade from 2.7.3 to 2.7.[0-2] is impossible. We can rollback instead. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8791 https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HdfsRollingUpgrade.html Regards, Akira On 3/31/16 08:18, Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli wrote:
Hi all, Got nudged about 2.7.3. Was previously waiting for 2.6.4 to go out (which did go out mid February). Got a little busy since. Following up the 2.7.2 maintenance release, we should work towards a 2.7.3. The focus obviously is to have blocker issues [1], bug-fixes and *no* features / improvements. I hope to cut an RC in a week - giving enough time for outstanding blocker / critical issues. Will start moving out any tickets that are not blockers and/or won’t fit the timeline - there are 3 blockers and 15 critical tickets outstanding as of now. Thanks, +Vinod [1] 2.7.3 release blockers: https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?filter=12335343
