Eli Collins updated HADOOP-5464:
--------------------------------
Description:
{{dfs.datanode.socket.write.timeout}} is used for sockets to and from
datanodes. It is 8 minutes by default. Some users set this to 0, effectively
disabling the write timeout (for some specific reasons).
When this is set to 0, DFSClient sets the timeout to 5 seconds by mistake while
writing to DataNodes. This is exactly the opposite of real intention of setting
it to 0 since 5 seconds is too short.

Release Note: Zero values for dfs.socket.timeout and
dfs.datanode.socket.write.timeout are now respected. Previously zero values for
these parameters resulted in a 5 second timeout.
