-------------------------------------------------------------
[~bpatel], I see. In the matter of updating mount, it will be useful to have
append or update mount operation. As you pointed out, it is inefficient and
infeasible to remove a mount, then add that mount again, for syncing metadata
purpose.
Yes, we can file another Jira to track this functionality in the future. Thanks
for your insightful comments!

> HDFS Provided Storage Read/Write Mount Support On-the-fly

> HDFS Provided Storage (PS) is a feature to tier HDFS over other file systems.
> In HDFS-9806, PROVIDED storage type was introduced to HDFS. Through
> configuring external storage with PROVIDED tag for DataNode, user can enable
> application to access data stored externally from HDFS side. However, there
> are two issues need to be addressed. Firstly, mounting external storage
> on-the-fly, namely dynamic mount, is lacking. It is necessary to get it
> supported to flexibly combine HDFS with an external storage at runtime.
> Secondly, PS write is not supported by current HDFS. But in real
> applications, it is common to transfer data bi-directionally for read/write
> between HDFS and external storage.
> Through this JIRA, we are presenting our work for PS write support and
> dynamic mount support for both read & write. Please note in the community
> several JIRAs have been filed for these topics. Our work is based on these
> previous community work, with new design & implementation to support called
> writeBack mount and enable admin to add any mount on-the-fly. We appreciate
> those folks in the community for their great contribution! See their pending
> JIRAs: HDFS-14805 & HDFS-12090.
