Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HADOOP-8968: -------------------------------------------- @Eli, you are right on buildversion matching and version not and so on. This was introduced by HADOOP-8209. I think that should be fixed. But it is different from the issue this JIRA is trying to solve, to allow different versions of the JT/TT DN/NN to work in order to enable a rolling upgrade between 2 different versions, yet compatible. > add flag to disable completely version check in the TaskTracker and DataNode > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8968 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8968 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.1.0 > Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur > Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-8968.patch, HADOOP-8968.patch, HADOOP-8968.patch, > HADOOP-8968.patch > > > The current logic in the TaskTracker and the DataNode to allow a relax > version check with the JobTracker and NameNode works only if the versions of > Hadoop are exactly the same. > We should add a switch to disable version checking completely, to enable > rolling upgrades between compatible versions (typically patch versions). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
