Description

DFSTestUtil.appendFile() opens an output stream to write to a file but never closes it.
This was fixed for DFSTestUtil.createFile() on trunk by HDFS-3995. The same should be done for appendFile().
On branch 2 both createFile() and appendFile() should be changed to close the respective output streams.
