Matt Foley commented on HADOOP-7207:
------------------------------------
Be careful with this one as we move to Federation, because the "-fs" command
line option is currently the only way to direct the FSClient at a file system
other than the default one, if any. So if you might want your client to target
one of several name services (federated namenodes), you have to use the -fs
option or provide an alternative.
> fs member of FSShell is not really needed

> FileSystem object should be created on demand when needed in FSShell, instead
> of always creating one that connects to the default FileSystem.
> It will also solve a problem of connecting to non-existant/non-functional
> default, when it is not really needed for this run.
