[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-4014) DFS upgrade fails on Windows

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4014?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12628236#action_12628236 ] 

Konstantin Shvachko commented on HADOOP-4014:
---------------------------------------------

I'd rather introduce a static member {{OSType osType;}} and use it to verify in which order the arguments should be set in the command line.
{{osType}} should replace {{osName}} with the latter becoming a local variable of {{getOSType()}}.
You effectively do the same by comparing command name is "fsutil". Checking osType seems to be cleaner.
"XpP" - is a good catch. 
Did you really try it on Vista?

> FileUtil.HardLink#createHardLink() didn't work on Windows, and DFS upgrade of Datanode fails.
> The windows command 'fsutil' requires the arguments link name first as follows,
> > fsutil hardlink create <link name> <target>
> But the current FileUtil passes the target first.
