Reid Chan commented on HBASE-22578:
-----------------------------------

My question is why do you {{create empty directories for namespace and table}} 
under archive directory, can't those stuff be in another specific directory? 
like under /hbase/for_faster_scan_or_whatever.

> HFileCleaner should not delete empty ns/table directories used for user san 
> snapshot feature

> HBASE-21995 add a coprocessor to set HDFS acls for HBase users who own HBase 
> read permission to mask users have the ability to scan snapshot directly.
> It creates empty directories for namespace and table under archive directory 
> and set HDFS acls to these directories after namespace or table is created, 
> in this way, users can read files under archive directory.
> But the HFileCleaner will delete empty directories and this will break this 
> feature. So if the user scan snapshot feature is enabled, HFileCleaner should 
> not delete empty ns/table directories.
