Hey Michael, Symbolic links has been implemented [1] but are not yet available in a Hadoop release. The implementation is only available to clients that use the new FileContext API so clients like Hive need to be migrated from using FileSystem to FileContext. This is currently being done in Hadoop itself [2].
Thanks, Eli [1] http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-245 [2] http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6446 On Tue, Mar 9, 2010 at 4:10 PM, jiang licht <[email protected]> wrote: > Is there a way to create symlink in hdfs?
