Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-12990:
---------------------------------------

bq. Until this point, there are probably very few people / cluster have 
upgraded to 3.0.0., so it's likely that this will not negatively impact anyone. 
But if we do not make this change, eventually all existing deployments will be 
affected.

To me, this is the most compelling point here. Yes, this is definitely an 
incompatible change, but if we make it now I think we are far more likely to 
help more users and downstream applications with their upgrades from 2.x 
releases than we are to hurt the *very* few folks who have tried out 3.0.0. 
Given how recently 3.0.0 was released, it seems likely to me that no 
substantial deployments have moved to this release yet.

[~anu] - what are your thoughts? From a pragmatic standpoint, I think this is 
*definitely* the right trade-off to make.

> In HDFS-9427 (HDFS should not default to ephemeral ports), we changed all 
> default ports to ephemeral ports, which is very appreciated by admin. As part 
> of that change, we also modified the NN RPC port from the famous 8020 to 
> 9820, to be closer to other ports changed there.
> With more integration going on, it appears that all the other ephemeral port 
> changes are fine, but the NN RPC port change is painful for downstream on 
> migrating to Hadoop 3. Some examples include:
> # Hive table locations pointing to hdfs://nn:port/dir
> # Downstream minicluster unit tests that assumed 8020
> # Oozie workflows / downstream scripts that used 8020
> This isn't a problem for HA URLs, since that does not include the port 
> number. But considering the downstream impact, instead of requiring all of 
> them change their stuff, it would be a way better experience to leave the NN 
> port unchanged. This will benefit Hadoop 3 adoption and ease unnecessary 
> upgrade burdens.
> It is of course incompatible, but giving 3.0.0 is just out, IMO it worths to 
> switch the port back.
