Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-2802: -------------------------------------- Just FYI - I've set up a nighly Jenkins build of the HDFS-2802 branch here: https://builds.apache.org/view/G-L/view/Hadoop/job/Hadoop-Hdfs-Snapshots-Branch-build/ Currently I'm the only one who gets emailed about it. If you're a committer or the like you can just add your email to that job configuration if you want to get emails with the restuls. If you're not, let me or someone else with access know and we can add your email to the list of who gets emailed by that job. Last night a bunch of tests failed because of HDFS-4158, but if someone can review that soon I'll check it in tonight and hopefully get a better test run. > Support for RW/RO snapshots in HDFS > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2802 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2802 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: data-node, name-node > Reporter: Hari Mankude > Assignee: Hari Mankude > Attachments: HDFS-2802.20121101.patch, > HDFS-2802-meeting-minutes-121101.txt, HDFSSnapshotsDesign.pdf, snap.patch, > snapshot-design.pdf, snapshot-design.tex, snapshot-one-pager.pdf, > Snapshots20121018.pdf, Snapshots20121030.pdf > > > Snapshots are point in time images of parts of the filesystem or the entire > filesystem.
