Hi, I was wondering about the safety of multiples dfs.name.dir directories. On one hand, we want all copies to be synchronised but on the other hand if a hard drive fail we would like the namenode still to be operational. How does that work? I know there is the source but I was hoping for a higher level description.
Regards Bertrand PS : I am interested about the behaviour of the last stable version ie 1.0.3. Not in the old issues that were solved.
