dhruba borthakur commented on HADOOP-4546: ------------------------------------------ Hi Arun, your patch looks good. Would it be possible for you to write a unit test as Steve suggested? The details are explained in http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute A minor comment about the patch: it would be nice if you can create a enum named DF.OSType that follows the pattern in src.core.org.apache.fs.FileUtil.HardLink.OSType. Then it will be elegant to add newer platform support for DF parsing in the future. > Minor fix in dfs to make hadoop work in AIX > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4546 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4546 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs > Affects Versions: 0.18.1 > Environment: AIX > Reporter: Arun Venugopal > Attachments: dfs_aix_fix.patch > > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > HDFS uses df command to get the disk space. The output format of df command > is different in AIX compared to Linux and Solaris. Checking the OS type and > then reading the df output as per the format will fix this issue and thus > allows hadoop to be fully functional in AIX environment. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
