Vinay updated HDFS-5568:
------------------------

    Attachment: HDFS-5568.patch

Here is the patch to include snapshot paths also during fsck check.

This is on demand. "-includeSnapshots" should be specified to include snapshot 
paths. If need to provide as default, then can remove this option.

Fsck includes only those snapshottable directories which are owned by a user. 
For super user includes all.

Please review and let me know improvements/suggestions required.
Thanks

> 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.
