1. built and tested apache slider (incubating) against the Hadoop 2.7.3 artifacts 2. did a build & test of Apache Spark master branch iwth 2.7.3 JARs, For that I had to tweak spark's build to support the staging repo; hopefully that will get into Spark https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17058 3. did a test run of my WiP SPARK-7481 spark-cloud module; after fixing a couple of things on the test setup side related to HADOOP-13058, mvn test --pl cloud -Pyarn,hadoop-2.7,snapshots-and-staging -Dhadoop.version=2.7.3 -Dcloud.test.configuration.file=../conf/cloud-tests.xml all was well —albeit measurably slower than Hadoop 2.8. That's proof that the 2.8 version of s3a really does deliver measurable speedup for those tests (currently just file input/seek; more to come). I had originally thought things were broken as s3 init was failing -but that's because the s3 bucket was in frankfurt, and the AWS library used can't talk to that endpoint (v4 auth protocol, see). 4. did a full spark distribution build of that SPARK-7481 branch dev/make-distribution.sh -Pyarn,hadoop-2.7,snapshots-and-staging -Dhadoop.version=2.7.3 ran command line test to do read of s3a data: bin/spark-submit --class org.apache.spark.cloud.s3.examples.S3LineCount \ --conf spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.access.key=$AWS_KEY \ --conf spark.hadoop.fs.s3a.secret.key=$AWS_SECRET \ examples/jars/spark-examples_2.11-2.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar 5. Pulled out the microsoft Azure JAR azure-storage-2.0.0.jar and repeated step 4 -this showed that the 2.7.x branch does handle the failure to load a filesystem due to dependency or other classloading problems —this was proving a big problem in adding the aws & azure stuff to the spark build, as it'd stop spark from starting up if the dependencies were absent. I've not done any of the .tar.gz diligence; I've just looked at the staged JARs and how they worked with downstream apps —that being a key way that Hadoop artifacts are adopted. > On 12 Aug 2016, at 17:45, Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli <vino...@apache.org> wrote: > > Hi all, > > I've created a release candidate RC1 for Apache Hadoop 2.7.3. > > As discussed before, this is the next maintenance release to follow up 2.7.2. > > The RC is available for validation at: > http://home.apache.org/~vinodkv/hadoop-2.7.3-RC1/ > <http://home.apache.org/~vinodkv/hadoop-2.7.3-RC0/> > > The RC tag in git is: release-2.7.3-RC1 > > The maven artifacts are available via repository.apache.org > <http://repository.apache.org/> at > https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachehadoop-1045/ > <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachehadoop-1045/> > > The release-notes are inside the tar-balls at location > hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/main/docs/releasenotes.html.
