Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on HADOOP-7510:
----------------------------------------------

> New tasks spawned after the ip change will fail.
Good point. The alternative approach doesn't work.

My concerns with the posted patch:
1) The use-case mentioned earlier (the contrived one) doesn't work.
2) The assumption about InetSocketAddress#getHostname is not a documented API 
behavior. Different java implementations could do it differently.
3) This is a risky change.

  A safer approach, in my opinion, will be to make this change in a major 
release (e.g. 23) where some backward compatibility constraints can probably be 
relaxed. That will allow us a better fix using standard java api.

> Tokens currently store the ip:port of the remote server.  This precludes 
> tokens from being used after a host's ip is changed.  Tokens should store the 
> hostname used to make the RPC connection.  This will enable new processes to 
> use their existing tokens.
