Alan Burlison commented on HADOOP-11985:
----------------------------------------
Some notes about environment:
1. The initial target will be Solaris 11.2 + latest SRU and will track any
subsequent updates
2. Both sparc and x86 will be targets
3. The environment will be configured to use GNU tools & utilities, i.e..
/usr/gnu/bin first in $PATH
4. gcc will be used, the version will be le latest shipped with the Solaris
version being used
Later work may include adding support for the Solaris tools & utilities and
supporting Solaris Studio.

> Key: HADOOP-11985
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11985
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: build, conf
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0
> Environment: Solaris x86, Solaris sparc
> Reporter: Alan Burlison
> Assignee: Alan Burlison
> Labels: solaris
>
> At present the Hadoop native components aren't fully supported on Solaris
> primarily due to differences between Linux and Solaris. This top-level task
> will be used to group together both existing and new issues related to this
> work. A second goal is to improve Hadoop performance on Solaris wherever
> possible.
> Steve Loughran suggested a top-level JIRA was the best way to manage the work.
