Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-1725:
---------------------------------------
Sorry for the late reply. My concern with this patch is, it started out as
cleaning up FSImage construction. But there are other changes that I am not
very comfortable with, in terms of what they are introducing to the code. I
would prefer a separate jira to do that.

> FSImage construction is messy. Sometimes the storagedirectories in use are
> set straight away, sometimes they are not. This makes it hard for anything
> under FSImage (i.e. FSEditLog) to make assumptions about what it can use.
> Therefore, this patch makes FSImage set the storage directories in use during
> construction, and never allows them to change. If you want to change
> storagedirectories you create a new image.
> Also, all the construction code should be the same with the only difference
> being the parameters passed. When not passed, these should get sensible
> defaults.
