# rpm -qa gluster\* org.apache.hadoop\*
glusterfs-3.4.0qa6-1.el6rhs.x86_64
glusterfs-fuse-3.4.0qa6-1.el6rhs.x86_64
org.apache.hadoop.fs.glusterfs-glusterfs-0.20.2_0.2-1.noarch
glusterfs-server-3.4.0qa6-1.el6rhs.x86_64

Comment 5 Jay Vyas 2013-03-31 16:33:41 UTC
Are we sure this is a bug in gluster-fs hadoop plugin?  

GlusterFS Hadoop plugin *does not* replace the hadoop org.apache.hadoop.DistributedFileSystem, but rather, implements a FileSystem class of its own (GlusterFileSystem).

Meanwhile - the DFS admin is supposed to be specific to DistributedFileSystem instances - this is enforced statically in the code, i.e. . 

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/branches/branch-0.20/src/hdfs/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/tools/DFSAdmin.java

  /**
  * An abstract class for the execution of a file system command
  */
  abstract private static class DFSAdminCommand extends Command {
    final DistributedFileSystem dfs;
    /** Constructor */
    public DFSAdminCommand(FileSystem fs) {
      super(fs.getConf());
      if (!(fs instanceof DistributedFileSystem)) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("FileSystem " + fs.getUri() + 
            " is not a distributed file system");
      }
      this.dfs = (DistributedFileSystem)fs;
    }
  }

Comment 6 Jay Vyas 2013-03-31 17:02:28 UTC
Actually, at further glance - the report() function does nothing when run against a non "DistributedFileSystem".  Where we define DistributedFileSystem as a file system which is an instance of class 

org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DistributedFileSystem;


SUGGESTION: 

This should be filed as a JIRA to the apache hadoop folks (i.e. to remove the hardcoded dependency on g.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DistributedFileSystem) ?  Currently - the DFSADmin class does seem to be pluggable.

Comment 7 Jay Vyas 2013-04-29 21:57:17 UTC
Marking as low since this may not be a "real" bug.  We have to determine the correct behaviour for hadoop dfs calls when running on gluster.

Comment 8 Matthew Farrellee 2013-05-21 13:44:43 UTC
Related - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4837

A service could exist for HCFS Gluster that implements some NameNode APIs used by various tools, such as dfsadmin or even the web ui.

Comment 9 Scott Haines 2013-11-19 19:25:13 UTC
Per 11/13 bug triage meeting, re-assigning to bchilds.

Comment 10 Kaleb KEITHLEY 2015-10-22 15:46:38 UTC
because of the large number of bugs filed against mainline version\ is ambiguous and about to be removed as a choice.

If you believe this is still a bug, please change the status back to NEW and choose the appropriate, applicable version for it.
