Kai Zheng commented on HDFS-7866:
---------------------------------
bq. If we want to support custom policies later, we still need a way to
generate unique IDs right?
I agree we can do the simpler approach here to move on. Later (maybe in a long
future) we can think about how to customize an EC policy where there is real
system requirement. Also please ref. [the comment made by Andrew
here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7337?focusedCommentId=14632005&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14632005].
