dhruba borthakur updated HADOOP-6099:
-------------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Allow configuring the IPC module to send pings
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-6099
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6099
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ipc
> Reporter: dhruba borthakur
> Assignee: dhruba borthakur
> Fix For: 0.21.0
>
> Attachments: ipcPing.txt, ipcPing2.txt
>
>
> The IPC Client sets a socketTimeout for the time period specified by the
> pingInterval and then sends a ping every pingInterval. This means that if a
> RPC server does not respond to a RPC client, then the RPC client blocks
> forever. This is a problem for applications that wants to switch quickly from
> one un-responsive HDFS cluster to a good one.
