------------------------------------------

             Summary: Improve description for 
"dfs.namenode.num.extra.edits.retained" and 
"dfs.namenode.num.checkpoints.retained" properties on hdfs-default.xml
                 Key: HDFS-7752
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7752
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
            Reporter: Wellington Chevreuil
            Assignee: Wellington Chevreuil
            Priority: Minor


Current description for "dfs.namenode.num.extra.edits.retained" and 
"dfs.namenode.num.checkpoints.retained" properties on hdfs-default.xml is not 
clear on how much and which files will be kept on namenodes meta-data 
directory. 

For "dfs.namenode.num.checkpoints.retained", it's not clear that it applies to 
the number of "fsimage_*" files.

For "dfs.namenode.num.extra.edits.retained", it's not clear the value set 
indirectly applies to "edits_*" files, and how the configured value translates 
into the number of edit files to be kept.
