If you need to set the coniguration, please be sure to restart HDFS. See

+The following releases of Apache Hadoop require special configuration to ensure
+that data is not inadvertently lost; however, in all releases of Apache Hadoop,
+`dfs.durable.sync` and `dfs.support.append` should *not* be configured as `false`.
+
+VERSION NAME=VALUE
+0.20.205.0 - dfs.support.append=true
+1.0.x - dfs.support.append=true
+ Additionally, it is strongly recommended that you enable 'dfs.datanode.synconclose'
+ in your hdfs-site.xml configuration file to ensure that, in the face of unexpected
+ power loss to a datanode, files are wholly synced to disk.
+
The example accumulo configuration files are placed in directories based on the
memory footprint for the accumulo processes. If you are using native libraries
for you tablet server in-memory map, then you can use the files in "native-standalone".
