Introduce block committing logic during new block allocation and file close. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-565 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-565 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Components: hdfs client, name-node Affects Versions: Append Branch Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko Assignee: Konstantin Shvachko Fix For: Append Branch {{ClientProtocol}} methods {{addBlock()}} and {{complete()}} need to include additional parameter - a block, which has been successfully written to data-nodes. By sending this block to the name-node the client confirms the generation stamp of the block and its length. The block on the name-node changes its state to committed and will become complete as long as one of the finalized replicas reported by data-nodes. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
