Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-11630:
-------------------------------------------
The problem is that Hadoop today makes assumptions about the IP address.
There's a lot more required to get IPv6 to work than just setting this.
> Allow hadoop to bind to ipv6 conditionally

> Key: HADOOP-11630
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11630
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: scripts
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Reporter: Elliott Clark
> Assignee: Elliott Clark
> Labels: ipv6

> Currently the bash scripts unconditionally add -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
> While this was needed a while ago. IPV6 on java works much better now and
> there should be a way to allow it to bind dual stack if needed.
