> Key: HADOOP-12374
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12374
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: documentation, trash
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0, 2.7.1
> Reporter: Weiwei Yang
> Assignee: Weiwei Yang
> Labels: docuentation, newbie, suggestions, trash
> Attachments: HADOOP-12374.001.patch, HADOOP-12374.002.patch,

> Usage: hadoop fs -expunge
> Empty the Trash. Refer to the HDFS Architecture Guide for more information on
> the Trash feature.
> this description is confusing. It gives user the impression that this command
> will empty trash, but actually it only removes old checkpoints. If user sets
> a pretty long value for fs.trash.interval, this command will not remove
> anything until checkpoints exist longer than this value.
