>
> Currently, in several tests, e.g., {{TestDataNodeVolumeFailureXXX}} and
> {{TestDataNotHowSwapVolumes}}, we simulate a disk failure by setting a
> directory's executable permission as false. However, it raises the risk that
> if the cleanup code could not be executed, the directory can not be easily
> removed by Jenkins job.
> Since in {{DiskChecker#checkDirAccess}}:
> {code}
> private static void checkDirAccess(File dir) throws DiskErrorException {
> if (!dir.isDirectory()) {
> throw new DiskErrorException("Not a directory: "
> + dir.toString());
> }
> checkAccessByFileMethods(dir);
> }
> {code}
> We can replace the DN data directory as a file to achieve the same fault
> injection goal, while it is safer for cleaning up in any circumstance.
> Additionally, as [~cnauroth] suggested:
> bq. That might even let us enable some of these tests that are skipped on
> Windows, because Windows allows access for the owner even after permissions
> have been stripped.
