stack updated HBASE-5587: ------------------------- Affects Version/s: 0.96.0 Good candidate for the singularity release. > Remove dns.interface configuration options > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5587 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5587 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.96.0 > Reporter: Eli Collins > > Are the {{hbase.*.dns.interface}} configuration options used or needed? Per > HBASE-4109 it looks like these never really worked, at least in cases where > the hostname with a trailing dot doesn't resolve. The reason I asked is that > while these were introduced in Hadoop, I don't think they're actually used, > nor am I convinced bypassing the host for DNS lookups is a good idea (leads > to painful bugs where default Java DNS lookups differ with these lookups). > HBase started using these via a similar feature in HBASE-1279 and HBASE-1279. > I filed HADOOP-8156 to remove the API which HBase uses, which is obviously an > incompatible change and would need to be worked around here if you wanted to > keep this functionality in HBase, ie *if* that were to get checked into > Hadoop we'd first need to get you on your own DNS class. Either way I'll > update DNS' InterfaceAudience annotation to indicate HBase is a user. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
