Aaron T. Myers created HDFS-5102: ------------------------------------ Summary: Snapshot names should not be allowed to contain slash characters Key: HDFS-5102 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5102 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: snapshots Affects Versions: 2.1.0-beta Reporter: Aaron T. Myers
Snapshots of a snapshottable directory are allowed to have arbitrary names. Presently, if you create a snapshot with a snapshot name that begins with a "/" character, this will be allowed, but later attempts to access this snapshot will fail because of the way the {{Path}} class deals with consecutive "/" characters. I suggest we disallow "/" from appearing in snapshot names. An example of this is in the first comment on this JIRA. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
