Name shoud give the Datanodes a parameter that specifies the backoff time for initial block reports ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-2444 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2444 Project: Hadoop Issue Type: Improvement Components: dfs Reporter: Sanjay Radia HADOOP-2326 adds a random backoff for the initial block reports. This however is static config parameter. It would be useful to have the NN tell the DN how much to backoff (i.e. rather than a single configuration parameter for the backoff). This would allow the system to adjust automatically to cluster size - smaller clusters will startup faster than larger clusters. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
