Xiao Chen commented on HDFS-13469:
----------------------------------

Thanks folks for bringing up this issue.

Is it even possible to solve this in a compatible way?

Suppose I'm the client and I previously read from {{/.reserved/inode/123}}, 
from the only nameservice I had. Now the cluster is federated and another 
nameservice is added. Router based or not, if that other nameservice also has 
inode 123, there is no way that my input {{/.reserved/inode/123}} can map to 
the 2 inodes in the 2 nameservices, both ID'ed 123...

It seems to me we'd require the client to explicitly read from 
{{hdfs://nameserviceX/.reserved/inode/123}} to have this working, and call out 
this in documentation.

I'm not very familiar with NFS, does HDFS-11575 address this?

> The Namenode supports identifying files through inode identifiers.
> Currently the Router does not handle this properly, we need to add this
