Abhishek Rai commented on HDFS-6908:
------------------------------------

Thanks Harsh, that sounds reasonable.  It gives us a way to avoid having to 
live with the FSImageFormatPBSnapshot hack longer term once the proper fix for 
this bug is applied.

Thanks

> In the following scenario, delete snapshot could generate incorrect snapshot 
> directory diff and corrupted fsimage, if you restart NN after that, you will 
> get NullPointerException.
> 1. create a directory and create a file under it
> 2. take a snapshot
> 3. create another file under that directory
> 4. take second snapshot
> 5. delete both files and the directory
> 6. delete second snapshot
> incorrect directory diff will be generated.
> Restart NN will throw NPE
