Lei (Eddy) Xu edited comment on HDFS-3702 at 3/24/16 10:18 PM: --------------------------------------------------------------- Updated the patch to: * Move {{AddBlockFlag}} to {{o.a.h.hdfs}} * Add one end-to-end test to use {{CreateFlag.NO_LOCAL_WRITE}} directly. [~szetszwo] Could the 010 patch be sufficient to address your concerns?
