Hong Tang commented on MAPREDUCE-1222:
--------------------------------------

@dick, thanks for the comments. I am combing through the jdk code too and 
struggling to find the any explicit API. Finally, I found out that there are 
calls to directly translate ipv4/6 addresses from string literal form ot 
Inet{4|6}Address objects, but they are not in JDK, instead they are in 
sun.net.util.IPAddressUtil - which makes it unusable (unless we mandate 
everybody use sun jvm).

What bothers me for re-implementing RFC 2372 (IPv6 address architecture) is 
that it is a complicated scheme and we probably need a suite of unit-tests to 
guarantee our implementation is correct - which sounds to me to be way beyond 
the scope of this jira (which should not even exist if HDFS-778 is fixed).

> Rumen infers cluster topology by parsing input split locations from job 
> history logs. Due to HDFS-778, a cluster node may appear both as a numeric ip 
> or as a host name in job history logs. We should exclude nodes appeared as 
> numeric ips in cluster toplogy when we run mumak until a solution is found so 
> that numeric ips would never appear in input split locations.
