MR-3462 modified the tests rather than > fixing the framework. In that jira Ravi mentioned "I'm still ignorant of the > change which made the tests start to fail. I should probably understand > better the reasons for that change before proposing a more generalized fix." > Let's figure out the general fix (rather than require all projects to set > mapreduce.job.hdfs-servers in their conf we should fix this in the > framework). Perhaps we should not default this config to "$fs.default.name"? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
