HDFS quotas should be settable on a "over full" directory ---------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-5872 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5872 Project: Hadoop Core Issue Type: Bug Reporter: eric baldeschwieler Right now a quota can only be set on disk space or file name space if the quota is greater than the current amount in use by the directory on which the quota is being set. It should be possible to set a quota less than the current amount used. The expected result is that no more files will be creatable in that directory until files are removed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
