Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-7866:
---------------------------------

Thanks Jing for the review. Changing the proto field to optional is a valid 
concern. However, from a schema point of view, having the ID as optional looks 
a little weird -- it should be the "primary key" of the policy in the table. 
When receiving a policy proto, it's helpful to verify it with the policy table 
for diagnosis. It's also a little awkward to have {{BlockStoragePolicy#id}} as 
required but EC policy ID as optional. I think the pre-release incompatibility 
is probably worth it. But LMK if you agree.

bq. And if I understand the above discussion correctly, we will address the 
INodeFile constructor (and the toLong method) in a follow-on jira, right?
Yes that's the plan. Actually I plan to work on the cleanup JIRA.

> 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.
