Elek, Marton commented on HADOOP-15007:
---------------------------------------

[~anu] I understand your concerns about type-safety. My only note is that there 
is a big difference between tags and configuration keys. Configuration keys 
(such as OzoneConfigurationKeys.OZONE_CLIENT_SOCKET_TIMEOUT_DEFAULT) are used 
in the code, but the element of the tags are never used anywhere. 

That's the reason that I think we don't need the enum, as the elements of the 
enums are not used at all. We need just a list of the used values. (And I also 
dont't expect any other usage in the future).

With other words: If nobody cares about the warnings (we would like to move 
them to the debug level), why do we need warnings?
{quote}I see your point but how we will register a class which is not in 
classpath of common? Another option is to create a common class for property 
tags and use it for everything. i.e hdfs,yarn etc.
{quote}
As an alternative approach it could be done with Service Provider Interface 
(java.util.ServiceLoader). With this approach the required enums could be 
provided by the other jars from the classpath.

> HDFS-12350 (moved to HADOOP-15005). Adds the ability to tag properties with a 
> <tag> value.
> We need to make sure that this feature is backwards compatible & usable in 
> production. That's docs, testing, marshalling etc.
