Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-7618:
-------------------------------------------

Yes, the EC storage policy was added by HDFS-7347.  A directory could be set to 
the EC storage policy; see TestBlockInitialEncoding.testBlockInitialEncoding().

> ... Which situation is this jira targeted on, or both these two situation 
> should be taken care of? 

The latter, i.e. support read when a file is being converted.  HDFS-7661 is for 
supporting read when a EC file is being written.  Do you also want to work on 
it?

> When the storage policy of a file is changed from replication to EC or vice 
> versa, users should still be able to read the file.
