---------------------------
Summary: Support inclusion of snapshot paths in Namenode fsck
Key: HDFS-5568
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5568
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: snapshots
Reporter: Vinay
Assignee: Vinay
Support Fsck to check the snapshot paths also for inconsistency.
Currently Fsck supports snapshot paths if path given explicitly refers to a
snapshot path.
We have seen safemode problems in our clusters which were due to blocks missing
which were only present inside snapshots. But "hdfs fsck /" shows HEALTHY.
So supporting snapshot paths also during fsck (may be by default or on demand)
would be helpful in these cases instead of specifying each and every
snapshottable directory.
