Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-5523:
---------------------------------

bq. if the exports are not allowed to be nested, do we want to allow users to 
mount the subdirectory of the export? e.g., the export is /a, can user mount 
/a/b even /a/b is not in the export table?
Sorry I misunderstood this question. I don't think we should allow mounting a 
dir that is not in the export table. 

What I think we should allow is to put {{/a/b}} in the mount table, even 
thought it's not a top-level directory.

> Currently, the HDFS NFS Gateway only supports configuring a single 
> subdirectory export via the  {{dfs.nfs3.export.point}} configuration setting. 
> Supporting multiple subdirectory exports can make data and security 
> management easier when using the HDFS NFS Gateway.
