Summary: Allow dfs.datanode.shared.file.descriptor.path to contain multiple entries and fall back when needed Key: HDFS-6061 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6061 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Components: datanode Affects Versions: 2.4.0 Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe In {{SharedFileDescriptorFactory}}, it would be nice if dfs.datanode.shared.file.descriptor.path could contain multiple entries and allow fallback between them. That way, if a user doesn't have {{/dev/shm}} configured (the current default), the user could use {{/tmp}}. This is mainly a concern on BSDs and some other systems where {{/dev/shm}} doesn't exist. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
