[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-432?page=comments#action_12457991 ] Yoram Arnon commented on HADOOP-432: ------------------------------------
it's okay, even desirable, that trash is always at maxsize. it's actually the only meaning of maxsize I can think of - it's the amount of space set aside for the trash. I believe that's the way it's usually done. the trash can contain really old files if the configured size allows it. > support undelete, snapshots, or other mechanism to recover lost files > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-432 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-432 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs > Reporter: Yoram Arnon > Assigned To: Wendy Chien > Attachments: undelete12.patch, undelete16.patch, undelete17.patch > > > currently, once you delete a file it's gone forever. > most file systems allow some form of recovery of deleted files. > a simple solution would be an 'undelete' command. > a more comprehensive solution would include snapshots, manual and automatic, > with scheduling options. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
