Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on HDFS-1824:
--------------------------------------------
If the 'fs' is not an instance of DistributedFileSystem the current code prints
an error and returns with an exit code. The patch changes to throw
IllegalArgumentException. I believe DFSAdmin#run will catch this exception and
still print just the error. Does it make sense to add/modify a unit test to
make sure an error code is returned in case of this error?
Patch looks good otherwise.
