Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5954: -------------------------------------- Thinking more about HTable#hsync, I think that would hard to make useful to an application. The application would need to do know which RegionServers to hsync the WAL on (unless we want to flush for a Table, which means all RegionServer hosting regions for this table need to hsync their WAL, and that does not seem to be useful). A similar argument goes for the RPCs (which will be split to multiple RegionServers). So #6 and #7 are out I think. I think Todd was right after all (just took me a long time to come around to it), a flag per Put/Delete/Increment/Append/etc, would be best option. > Allow proper fsync support for HBase > ------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-5954 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5954 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Assignee: Lars Hofhansl > Fix For: 0.96.0, 0.94.2 > > Attachments: 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v2.txt, > 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v3.txt, 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v4.txt, > 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v5.txt, 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk-v6.txt, > 5954-trunk-hdfs-trunk.txt, hbase-hdfs-744.txt > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
