Hi Dimitry, Thank you for your feedback. What I am trying to achieve is multi tenancy (torage level isolation and Resource sharing between tenants). So what I have in mind is to have a choice if to create tenants in the same namenode, but the namenode to have separate namespaces which would manage their block pool individually. I am just trying to avoid the hard rule of having two namenodes, if two namespaces are required, and to have two namespaces by one namenode.
