Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3177:
------------------------------------------------

Do we really need to add this method to the FileSystem API?  fsync seems DFS 
specific.

> Expose DFSOutputStream.fsync API though the FileSystem interface

> In the current code, there is a DFSOutputStream.fsync() API that allows a 
> client to flush all buffered data to the datanodes and also persist block 
> locations on the namenode. This API should be exposed through the generic API 
> in the org.hadoop.fs.
