Mala Chikka Kempanna updated HDFS-8436:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Changing the replication factor for a directory should apply to
new files under the directory too (was: Changing the replication factor for a

> Changing the replication factor for a directory should apply to new files
> under the directory too
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HDFS-8436
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8436
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Mala Chikka Kempanna
>
> Changing the replication factor for a directory will only affect the existing
> files and the new files under the directory will get created with the default
> replication factor (dfs.replication from hdfs-site.xml) of the cluster.
> I would expect new files written under a directory to have the same
> replication factor set for the directory itself.
