Summary: WebHdfs socket timeouts should be configurable Key: HADOOP-12827 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12827 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: fs Environment: all Reporter: Austin Donnelly Assignee: Austin Donnelly WebHdfs client connections use sockets with fixed timeouts of 60 seconds to connect, and 60 seconds for reads. This is a problem because I am trying to use WebHdfs to access an archive storage system which can take minutes to hours to return the requested data over WebHdfs. The fix is to add new configuration file options to allow these 60s defaults to be customised in hdfs-site.xml. If the new configuration options are not present, the behavior is unchanged from before. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
