Associated a generation stamp with each block. On data nodes, the generation stamp is stored as part of the file name of the block's meta-data file.
Description
HADOOP-1700 describes the design for supporting appends to HDFS files. This design requires a distributed-upgrade to existing cluster installations. The design specifies that the DataNode persist the 8-byte BlockGenerationStamp in the block metadata file. The upgrade code will introduce this new field in the block metadata file and initialize this value to 0.
