Benoy Antony commented on HDFS-4794:
------------------------------------
This variable is used only in JSPs.
Please note that the change is not going to break any functionality. Instead of
using the service RPC address, we are using RPC address for the webui access.
This is in line with the Hadoop 2.0 approach. It has been working fine in our
clusters for last 3 months.
The change is pretty simple.
If a cluster is using service RPC address, namenode address in JSPS is set to
RPC address.
If a cluster is not using service RPC address, there is no change.
Adding a new variable simply causes more changes for no real reason and is not
tested by us.
