[jira] Resolved: (HADOOP-51) per-file replication counts

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-51?page=all ]
     
Doug Cutting resolved HADOOP-51:
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I just committed this.  I fixed the comment on dfs.replication.min.  I also added a message to CHANGES.txt.

Thanks, Konstantin!

Bryan: I think the issues you raise bear further discussion that I do not wish to stifle.  For example, we may someday want  to be able to specify more than 2^16 replications, and we may wish to handle replication requests outside of the configured limits differently.  But, for now, I think the patch fixes this bug and that those issues can be addressed though subsequent bugs as we gain experience.  So please file new bugs for any related issues that are important to you.

> It should be possible to specify different replication counts for different files.  Perhaps an option when creating a new file should be the desired replication count.  MapReduce should take advantage of this feature so that job.xml and job.jar files, which are frequently accessed by lots of machines, are more highly replicated than large data files.

I agree: Good work Konstantin!

I'll file new feature requests for the sticky bits from the discussion.
