Henry Hung created HDFS-5582: -------------------------------- Summary: hdfs getconf -excludeFile or -includeFile always failed Key: HDFS-5582 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5582 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.2.0 Reporter: Henry Hung Priority: Minor
In hadoop-2.2.0, if you execute getconf for exclude and include file, it will return this error message: {code} [hadoop@fphd1 hadoop-2.2.0]$ bin/hdfs getconf -excludeFile Configuration DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS_EXCLUDE is missing. [hadoop@fphd1 hadoop-2.2.0]$ bin/hdfs getconf -includeFile Configuration DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS is missing. {code} I found out the root cause is very simple, it’s because the source code of {{org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/tools/GetConf.java}} hard coded it to {{"DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS"}} and {{"DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS_EXCLUDE"}} {code} map.put(INCLUDE_FILE.getName().toLowerCase(), new CommandHandler("DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS")); map.put(EXCLUDE_FILE.getName().toLowerCase(), new CommandHandler("DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS_EXCLUDE")); {code} A simple fix would be to remove the quote: {code} map.put(INCLUDE_FILE.getName().toLowerCase(), new CommandHandler(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS)); map.put(EXCLUDE_FILE.getName().toLowerCase(), new CommandHandler(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HOSTS_EXCLUDE)); {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
