Balancer should run for a configurable # of iterations ------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-4678 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4678 Project: Hadoop Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: dfs Affects Versions: 0.18.2 Reporter: Brian Bockelman Priority: Minor The balancer currently exits if nothing has changed after 5 iterations. Our site would like to constantly balance a stream of incoming data; we would like to be able to set the number of iterations it "does nothing" for before exiting; even better would be if we set it to a negative number and could continuously run this as a daemon. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
