That's not really advisable with HBase. It's a touchy subject, the 0.20-ish support for append in HDFS exists in production at some large places but isn't in any ASF 0.20. We have replayed the append branch on top of branch-0.20-security: https://github.com/trendmicro/hadoop-common/tree/0.20-security-append This is a companion ASF-ish branch to our in development branch of HBase for HBASE-3025 (security and access control): http://github.com/trendmicro/hbase/tree/security If you're willing to risk data loss with HBase anyway you should give this a shot. We really need a branch-0.20-security-append. Best regards, - Andy Problems worthy of attack prove their worth by hitting back. - Piet Hein (via Tom White)
