Hudson commented on ACCUMULO-751:
---------------------------------
Integrated in Accumulo-Trunk-Hadoop-2.0 #30 (See
[https://builds.apache.org/job/Accumulo-Trunk-Hadoop-2.0/30/])
ACCUMULO-751 Switched from using the release version to an explicit wire
version for on-the-wire compatibility. This will need to be manually updated
when
thrift code changes between versions, or when interoperability is not possible
between versions due to functional differences. (Revision 1438700)
Result = SUCCESS

> Support Wire Compatibility (between bugfix releases)

> Key: ACCUMULO-751
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-751
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: master, thrift, tserver
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Mike Drob
> Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: api, compatibility, versioning, wire, wireprotocol
> Fix For: 1.5.0
>
>
> With the advent of the HA NameNode in HDFS, the need for planned Hadoop
> outages has greatly diminished. I believe that Accumulo should follow suit
> and eventually allow for no-outage upgrades.
> To support this feature, we would require wire compatibility between
> different versions so that the cluster can continue to function in a mixed
> state. There are already contingencies for master fail-over and tservers to
> leave/join the cluster, so I think this is a natural extension of that code.
> To accomplish this for bugfix releases should be trivial. I think it is only
> necessary to remove (or relax) the version check that happens when a tserver
> attempts to join. There are rarely (never?) changes to the thrift protocol
> between bugfix releases, so theoretically a 1.4.1 tserver is already
> compatible with a 1.4.0 master and vice versa.
> To maintain compatibility in the face of thrift protocol changes is certainly
> a harder challenge, which might be best reserved for a separate ticket.
