Surendra Singh Lilhore commented on HDFS-11163:
-----------------------------------------------

bq.  If the storage policy is unspecified at an inode, then the real effective 
storage policy might be resolved via inheritance from the inode's ancestry. 

As [~szetszwo] mentioned, HdfsLocatedFileStatus already has the resolved 
storage policy. (If inode policy unspecified, it will inherit from ancestors).

This issue is only applicable if ancestors policy also unspecified, in this 
case {{status.getStoragePolicy()}} will give 
BLOCK_STORAGE_POLICY_ID_UNSPECIFIED.

We need namenode default storage policy which we can use in case of {{ 
BLOCK_STORAGE_POLICY_ID_UNSPECIFIED}}. We can add new field in 
{{FsServerDefaults}} for default policy.

So we can do something like this...

{code}
      final byte policyId = status.getStoragePolicy();
      if (policyId == HdfsConstants.BLOCK_STORAGE_POLICY_ID_UNSPECIFIED) {
        policyId = dfs.getServerDefaults().getDefaultStoragePolicy();
      }
{code}

> Mover should move the file blocks to default storage once policy is unset

> HDFS-9534 added new API in FileSystem to unset the storage policy. Once 
> policy is unset blocks should move back to the default storage policy.
> Currently mover is not moving file blocks which have zero storage ID
> {code}
>       // currently we ignore files with unspecified storage policy
>       if (policyId == HdfsConstants.BLOCK_STORAGE_POLICY_ID_UNSPECIFIED) {
>         return;
>       }
> {code}
