             Summary: Add a way to get protected dirs from a special 
configuration file
                 Key: HDFS-15886
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-15886
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: namenode
    Affects Versions: 3.4.0
            Reporter: Max  Xie
            Assignee: Max  Xie


We used protected dirs to ensure that important data directories cannot be 
deleted by mistake. But protected dirs can only be configured in hdfs-site.xml.

For ease of management,  we add a way to get the list of protected dirs from a 
special configuration file.

How to use.

1. set the config in hdfs-site.xml

```

<property>
 <name>dfs.protected.directories.config.file.enable</name>
 <value>true</value>
</property>

<property>
 <name>fs.protected.directories</name>
 <value>file:///path/to/protected.dirs.config</value>
</property>

```

2.  add some protected dirs to the config file 
(file:///path/to/protected.dirs.config)

```

# protect directories

/1

/2/3

```

3. done
