Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-5977: ----------------------------------- Hi Haohui, I had the same thought and agree in spirit, but if you look at the comment history on HDFS-5709, [~sureshms] had some concerns about adding more reserved paths beyond our current two. We agreed to implement a more general solution for this reason. I agree that we don't need to implement this for the PB loader until we add another reserved path, but I filed this JIRA so "-renameReserved" isn't forgotten about in the future. > FSImageFormatPBINode does not respect "-renameReserved" upgrade flag > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5977 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5977 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: namenode > Affects Versions: 2.4.0 > Reporter: Andrew Wang > Labels: protobuf > > HDFS-5709 added a new upgrade flag "-renameReserved" which can be used to > automatically rename reserved paths like "/.reserved" encountered during > upgrade. The new protobuf loading code does not have a similar facility, so > future reserved paths cannot be automatically renamed via "-renameReserved". -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
