Jing Zhao commented on HDFS-7866:
---------------------------------
Sorry for the confusion. I mean the change on {{ErasureCodingPolicyProto}} only
affects RPC calls. It will break the wire compatibility between new client and
old NN, as you mentioned. This is the scenario we have in rolling upgrade or
different versions are mixed in the same cluster. Because EC is only in 3.0, we
can ask existing EC users to upgrade to the new version, and not to allow new
clients and old NN coexisting in the cluster.
