Chen Liang updated HDFS-12002:
------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently there are a few minor issues with the SCM CLI:

1. some commands do not use -c option to take container name. an issue with 
this is that arguments need to be in a certain order to be correctly parsed, 
e.g.:
{{./bin/hdfs scm -container -del c0 -f}} works, but
{{./bin/hdfs scm -container -del -f c0}} will not
A more important thing is that, since -del requires the following argument 
being container name, if someone types {{./bin/hdfs scm -container -del -help}} 
it will be an error, while we probably want to display a help message instead.

2.some subcommands are not displaying the errors in the best way it could be, 
e.g.:
{{./bin/hdfs scm -container -del}} is wrong because it misses container name. 
So cli complains 
{code}
Missing argument for option: del
Unrecognized options:[-container, -del]
usage: hdfs scm <commands> [<options>]
where <commands> can be one of the following
 -container   Container related options
{code}
but this does not really show that it is container name it is missing

3. probably better to rename -del to -delete to be consistent with other 
commands like -create and -info

4. when passing in invalid argument e.g. -info on a non-existing container, an 
exception will be displayed. We probably should not scare the users, and only 
display just one error message. And move the exception display to debug mode 
display or something.
