Brandon Li created HDFS-4659: -------------------------------- Summary: Support setting execution bit for regular files Key: HDFS-4659 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4659 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: namenode Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Brandon Li Assignee: Brandon Li
By default regular files are created with mode "rw-r--r--", which is similar as that on many UNIX platforms. However, setting execution bit for regular files are not supported by HDFS. It's the client's choice to set file access mode. HDFS would be easier to use if it can support it, especially when HDFS is accessed by network file system protocols. This JIRA is to track the change to support execution bit. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
