[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-12827) WebHdfs socket timeouts should be configurable

Austin Donnelly created HADOOP-12827:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: WebHdfs socket timeouts should be configurable
                 Key: HADOOP-12827
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12827
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: fs
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Austin Donnelly
            Assignee: Austin Donnelly


WebHdfs client connections use sockets with fixed timeouts of 60 seconds to connect, and 60 seconds for reads.
This is a problem because I am trying to use WebHdfs to access an archive storage system which can take minutes to hours to return the requested data over WebHdfs.

The fix is to add new configuration file options to allow these 60s defaults to be customised in hdfs-site.xml.

If the new configuration options are not present, the behavior is unchanged from before.
