Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-6835:
-------------------------------------
Hi [~szetszwo], what do you think of making this API available to
non-administrators since HDFS-6847 added support for directory level storage
policies.
The use case is e.g. a MapReduce library could set storage policy on an output
directory before launching jobs. Thanks.
