>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: C++, Python
>    Affects Versions: 0.17.1
>            Reporter: Bruno Quinart
>            Priority: Minor

> 'Legacy' pyarrow.hdfs.connect was somehow able to get the namenode info from the hadoop configuration files.
> The new pyarrow.fs.HadoopFileSystem requires the host to be specified.
> Inferring this info from "the environment" makes it easier to deploy pipelines.
> But more important, for HA namenodes it is almost impossible to know for sure what to specify. If a rolling restart is ongoing, the namenode is changing. There is no guarantee on which will be active in a HA setup.
> I tried connecting to the standby namenode. The connection gets established, but when writing a file an error is raised that standby namenodes are not allowed to write to.
