[jira] Commented: (HDFS-1107) Turn on append by default.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1107?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12862458#action_12862458 ] 

Konstantin Shvachko commented on HDFS-1107:
-------------------------------------------

I am going to remove {{dfs.support.append}} from {{hdfs-default.xml}}, and change the default value to true for this variable in the code, if there are no other suggestions. 
This should not be treated as incompatible change, as I cannot imagine programs that would strictly rely on that append is not supported and would fail if it suddenly is.

> hdfs-default.xml still has the old default value {{dfs.support.append = false}}. It should be changed to {{true}}, or removed from the default configuration and treated as {{true}} if not found.
