dhruba borthakur commented on HADOOP-4567: ------------------------------------------ Got it. Actually the queston you are raising is whether BlockLocation.getTopologyPaths() should return /r1 or should it return /r1/h1. I would prefer that this new method return /r1/h1. If somebody wants only the hostname, they can continue to use the existing method BlockLocation.getHostName(). > GetFileBlockLocations should return the NetworkTopology information of the > machines that hosts those blocks > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4567 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4567 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs > Reporter: dhruba borthakur > Assignee: dhruba borthakur > Attachments: dfsRackLocation.patch > > > MultiFileInputFormat and FileInputFormat should use block locality > information to construct splits. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
