[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-4546) Minor fix in dfs to make hadoop work in AIX

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4546?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Bill Habermaas updated HADOOP-4546:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: hadoop-4546.patch
                TestDFVariations.java

The original patch author says he does not have an AIX system to finish this fix. I have made the suggested revision to the source, written a unit test, and tested the patch/unit test on AIX 6.1(in addition to running the normal ANT junit tests on that system). If I need to take further action to ensure this fix becomes permanently included in the system then please provide further guidance.

> HDFS uses df command to get the disk space. The output format of df command is different in AIX compared to Linux and Solaris. Checking the OS type and then reading the df output as per the format will fix this issue and thus allows hadoop to be fully functional in AIX environment.
