Boris Shkolnik commented on HADOOP-6203:
----------------------------------------
1. The idea is to make sure they know they can use skipTrash option. They can
find real reason by looking at the logs. We can print exception.cause.message
also, but that will make the message rather long. It will look like this:
>bin/hdfs dfs -rm /file3
Problem with Trash.org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.protocol.NSQuotaExceededException:
The NameSpace quota (directories and files) of directory is exceeded: quota=3
file count=7. Consider using -skipTrash option
rm: Failed to move to trash: hdfs://localhost:9000/file3
We cannot catch Quota exception directly because it is part of hadoop-hdfs.
Parsing string to find out that it is quota related doesn't sound like a good
idea.
Please specify if you like the longer version of the message.
2. if skipTrash is true - moveToTrash() won't be called.

> HADOOP-6080 provided an option for deleting files even when overquota, but
> the error message that's returned in this situation is unhelpful and doesn't
> suggest skipTrash as a remediation:
> {noformat}$ hdfs -rmr /foo/bar/bat/boo
> rmr: Failed to move to trash:
> hdfs://cluster/foo/bar/bat/boo{noformat}
> In this situation, the error message should say there was a quote problem and
> suggest -skipTrash.
