Johan Oskarson commented on HADOOP-340:
---------------------------------------

Ah, I guess I'll just add a massive number of directories to the config then.
Not as clean, but It'll work. Thanks for the info.

A note about this behaviour in the description field in the xml would be nice.

> Using wildcards in config pathnames

>          Key: HADOOP-340
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-340
>      Project: Hadoop
>         Type: Improvement

>   Components: conf
>     Versions: 0.4.0
>  Environment: a cluster with different disk setups
>     Reporter: Johan Oskarson
>     Priority: Minor

>
> In our cluster there's machines with very different disk setups
> I've solved this by not rsyncing hadoop-site.xml, but as you probably 
> understand this means new settings will not get copied properly.
> I'd like to be able to use wildcards in the dfs.data.dir path for example:
> <property>
>   <name>dfs.data.dir</name>
>     <value>/home/hadoop/disk*/dfs/data</value>
> </property>
> then every disk mounted in that directory would be used
