Chris Nauroth updated HDFS-8164:
--------------------------------
Description: After formatting a NameNode and inspecting its VERSION file,
the cTime property shows 0. The value does get updated to current time during
an upgrade, but I believe this is intended to be the creation time of the
cluster, and therefore the initial value of 0 before an upgrade can cause
confusion. (was: After formatting a NameNode and inspecting its VERSION file,

> cTime is 0 in VERSION file for newly formatted NameNode.
