Eli Collins created HDFS-5176: --------------------------------- Summary: WebHDFS should support logical service names in URIs Key: HDFS-5176 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5176 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha Reporter: Eli Collins
Having WebHDFS support logical URIs would allow users to eg distcp from one system to another (using a webhdfs source) w/o having to first figure out the hostname for the active NameNode on the source. Eventually we can make WebHdfsFileSystem fully support HA (eg failover) but this would be a useful intermediate point. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
