Mike Smith commented on HADOOP-997: ----------------------------------- Tom, Using this patch, do we still need to set s3service.stream-retry-buffer-size to 64M in jets3t.properties? Or that can be kept as the default value (100K)? Thanks, Mike > Implement S3 retry mechanism for failed block transfers > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-997 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-997 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 0.11.0 > Reporter: Tom White > Assigned To: Tom White > Fix For: 0.12.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-997-v2.patch, HADOOP-997-v3.patch, > HADOOP-997.patch > > > HADOOP-882 improves S3FileSystem so that when certain communications problems > with S3 occur the operation is retried. However, the retry mechanism cannot > handle a block transfer failure, since blocks may be very large and we don't > want to buffer them in memory. This improvement is to write a wrapper (using > java.lang.reflect.Proxy if possible - see discussion in HADOOP-882) that can > retry block transfers. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
