I have opened issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-586 with my proposed patch attached, and these questions included in the issue. Updated the patch with some things I noticed after the initial post also.

From: Roger Whitcomb [mailto:roger.whitc...@actian.com] Sent: Monday, November 16, 2015 5:12 PM To: Commons Developers List Subject: [VFS] Further changes to HDFS Provider for alternate configuration support Hi all, In trying to solve some customer issues we're having, mainly to do with trying to browse HDFS files when the Name Node is configured for High-Availability, I found I needed to make some more changes/additions to the VFS HDFS Provider. I have attached a diff/patch file. But, a couple of questions: . This is a follow-on (basically) to my earlier patch for VFS-555, should I open a new JIRA, or just reopen the existing one? . Since this actually changes an API (but which is not released yet), is that an acceptable thing to do? . The new properties I have added to HdfsFileSystemConfigBuilder are not actually symmetrical, so they don't fit the definition of a Java "property", that is the setters are "setXXX" while the getters are "getXXXs" (plural). The logic behind this is that the setters are called by user code, and each can be called multiple times. The getters are only (meant to be) called by the HdfsFileSystem object (that is internally to the HdfsProvider), and thus it is a lot easier to get all the settings at once than to have to make multiple calls, with potentially iterators, etc. . Is this too big a change to fit in last-minute before the release of VFS 2.1? Patch is attached.
