Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-1771:
---------------------------------------------

{quote}What's the use case for running Accumulo with different kinds of 
volumes?{quote}

Well, there's possibly {{tmpfs}}, with a custom {{general.volume.chooser}}. 
But, also, generally, there's the use case of expansion or combining two 
instances.

In general, I'd probably not recommend using two different kinds of 
filesystems, but I do think Accumulo should be agnostic to the implementation 
of the volume.

> Instance id and version info only stored on one hdfs instance

> When instance.volumes contains multiple uris only the first one is 
> initialized with the data version and instance id.   If the user changes the 
> order of the uris in the config, it seems like Accumulo will stop working 
> correctly.
