Dinesh S. Atreya commented on HDFS-9607:
----------------------------------------
Both [[email protected]] and [~wheat9] have raised good points.
Can only work on the design doc during spare time.
Don't want to have semantics of "update" too different from "append". Kindly
indicate what are the semantics of "append" vis-a-vis above, if folks know and
remember. (in-parallel I will dig that information up).
As a start we will reuse the [Generation Stamp |
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12370562/Appends.doc] of
blocks from the Append effort.
