-----------------------------------
Hi [~tedyu]
What is expected to do when deletion returns false? an error log, or few more
retries?
> Bulk load cleanup may falsely deem file deletion successful

> Key: HBASE-18801
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18801
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Ted Yu
>
> Toward the cleanupBulkLoad() method:
> {code}
> fs.delete(new Path(request.getBulkToken()), true);
> {code}
> The return value from delete() call is ignore, potentially leading to file
> lying around after the cleanup.
> This applies to all branches.
> Discovered when investigating bulk load test failure.
