Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Bug
Components: dfs
Affects Versions: 0.1.0
Reporter: Yoram Arnon
Assignee: dhruba borthakur
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 0.15.0
Attachments: tail.patch, tail3.patch, tail4.patch
the current behaviour, whereby a file is not visible until it is
closed has several flaws,including:
1. no practical way to know if a file/job is progressing
2. no way to implement files that never close, such as log files
3. failure to close a file results in loss of the file
The part of the file that's written should be visible.
