In the distributed mode name node could guarantee atomicity by locking, but I havent checked the details. Did you run the tests in local or distributed mode ? Anyways it would be hard to get the order and timing right for the tests to fail. It might be good to add some comments/docs to call out that the locking semantics depends on the underlying implementation guarantees. > Create HDFS Spout > ----------------- > > Key: STORM-1199 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-1199 > Project: Apache Storm > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Roshan Naik > Assignee: Roshan Naik > Attachments: HDFSSpoutforStorm v2.pdf, HDFSSpoutforStorm.pdf, > hdfs-spout.1.patch > > > Create an HDFS spout so that Storm can suck in data from files in a HDFS > directory -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
