Apache Hadoop 1.1.2 Release Notes

These release notes cover new developer and user-facing incompatibilities, important issues, features, and major improvements.


  • HADOOP-8567 | Major | Port conf servlet to dump running configuration to branch 1.x

Users can use the conf servlet to get the server-side configuration. Users can

  1. connect to http_server_url/conf or http_server_url/conf?format=xml and get XML-based configuration description;

Fixed a bug in TaskTracker's heartbeat to keep it under control.
