Hemanth Yamijala updated HADOOP-3304:
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Release Note: Fixed the regular expression used by the logcondense utility
to generate the list of log files to purge from HDFS. Also, improved error
handling, so a single invalid log file does not fail the purge process.
Hadoop Flags: [Reviewed]
Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available)
Devaraj committed this patch to both trunk and the Hadoop 0.17 branch.
> [HOD] logcondense fails if DFS has files that are not log files, but match a
> certain pattern

>
> logcondense works by listing files in dfs and match them against a certain
> pattern. This pattern is incorrect in the sense that it can potentially match
> files that are not log files. And this can cause it to fail and not delete
> files correctly as it should.
> It should use a correct regular expression that will only list log files.
> Also, possibly it should log a stack trace if it happens, but continue to
> delete files and not stop.
