Junping Du commented on YARN-7162: ---------------------------------- wait... Sorry for coming late on this. I think it could be better if we have JSON format support first then safely remove supporting XML. Any benefit we gain from this remove now? [~mingma] vote to remove XML format support but also to add a new format of JSON which hasn't been done first. > Remove XML excludes file format > ------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-7162 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-7162 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: graceful > Affects Versions: 2.9.0, 3.0.0-beta1 > Reporter: Robert Kanter > Assignee: Robert Kanter > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: YARN-7162.001.patch, YARN-7162.branch-2.001.patch > > > YARN-5536 aims to replace the XML format for the excludes file with a JSON > format. However, it looks like we won't have time for that for Hadoop 3 Beta > 1. The concern is that if we release it as-is, we'll now have to support the > XML format as-is for all of Hadoop 3.x, which we're either planning on > removing, or rewriting using a pluggable framework. > [This comment in > YARN-5536|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5536?focusedCommentId=16126194&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-16126194] > proposed two quick solutions to prevent this compat issue. In this JIRA, > we're going to remove the XML format. If we later want to add it back in, > YARN-5536 can add it back, rewriting it to be in the pluggable framework. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yarn-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: yarn-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
