Jing Zhao commented on HDFS-8345:
---------------------------------

Looks like most of the public functions in {{BlockStoragePolicy}} are 
generically choosing {{StorageType}} for replicas, and replication is a general 
concept and is already included in {{FileStatus}}. If you think some functions 
should be internal to HDFS, maybe we can also have a new subclass/wrapper of 
BlockStoragePolicy in HDFS?

> Storage policy APIs must be exposed via the FileSystem interface

> The storage policy APIs are not exposed via FileSystem. Since 
> DistributedFileSystem is tagged as LimitedPrivate we should expose the APIs 
> through FileSystem for use by other applications.
