Venkatesan Ramachandran commented on FALCON-2030:
-------------------------------------------------
Ok, I understand that we don't want to block any use cases by introducing this
validation, however the use case you explained above is not clear to me.
Especially, if the retention is deleting a set of files in the feed dir (there
are no version or date pattern sub-dirs), will that not affect the inflight
workflow instance hadoop jobs/tasks to fail?
> Enforce time partition pattern in the data location path in feed definition
