-------------------------------------

Hi [~andrew.wang], that's great to hear. I got sidetracked into some retry 
cache related changes for 2.1.0-beta. I will post the doc next week.

> HDFS currently supports configuration where storages are a list of 
> directories. Typically each of these directories correspond to a volume with 
> its own file system. All these directories are homogeneous and therefore 
> identified as a single storage at the namenode. I propose, change to the 
> current model where Datanode * is a * storage, to Datanode * is a collection 
> * of strorages.
