James Kennedy updated HDFS-233:
-------------------------------
I'd like to see this task get more traction. A snapshot mechanism would be very
valuable for those of us relying on HDFS to hold critical information.
> Support for snapshots

> Support HDFS snapshots. It should support creating snapshots without shutting
> down the file system. Snapshot creation should be lightweight and a typical
> system should be able to support a few thousands concurrent snapshots. There
> should be a way to surface (i.e. mount) a few of these snapshots
> simultaneously.
