I downloaded and checked this rc, some of the things I checked: - release notes are present both binary and src - html documentation present in binary: share/doc/hadoop/index.html - release is present at: https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/staging/org/apache/hadoop/hadoo p-common/0.23.1/ - tag looks good and matches src tarball contents - LICENSE, NOTICE and REAEDME are good - md5 and signatures good - src tarball builds
Testing: All testing on single node, unsecured - all daemons started - hdfs/yarn/history server - Ran wordcount, sleep, teragen, terasort, teravalidate and all passed Questions (I'm new to this process): - in binary package container-executor appears to be 64 bit, but the libraries (libhadoop.a, etc) are 32 bit - what is the binary supposed to support - 32 or 64? - CHANGES.txt contains the date as (2012-02-08), does this need to be updated for the new date of the rc1 vote?
