Kai Zheng commented on HDFS-7866:
---------------------------------

bq. If we want to support custom policies later, we still need a way to 
generate unique IDs right?
I agree we can do the simpler approach here to move on. Later (maybe in a long 
future) we can think about how to customize an EC policy where there is real 
system requirement. Also please ref. [the comment made by Andrew 
here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7337?focusedCommentId=14632005&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14632005].

> This is to extend NameNode to load, list and sync predefine EC schemas in 
> authorized and controlled approach. The provided facilities will be used to 
> implement DFSAdmin commands so admin can list available EC schemas, then 
> could choose some of them for target EC zones.
