Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-6808:
--------------------------------------
I think the change to the command syntax that Allen suggested is a good one -
glad we made it.
As for the difference between refresh/reconfig, I'm personally inclined to
agree with Colin on this one. The two "refresh*" commands are poorly named
given what they in fact do, but I don't think we should therefore conclude that
this command should not be called "reconfig" or that the two commands should
somehow be lumped together. Flushing caches of node or user/group mappings is
not reconfiguration in the way that this command intends.
Given that, I'm OK with the latest patch going in. Allen, are you alright with
it? -0, perhaps?

> The workflow of dynamically changing data volumes on DataNode is
> # Users manually changed {{dfs.datanode.data.dir}} in the configuration file
> # User use command line to notify DN to reload configuration and updates its
> volumes.
> This work adds command line support to notify DN to reload configuration.
