Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-11082:
------------------------------------
Hi Sammi, thanks for working on this, sorry for the delay reviewing,
* I think we should have {{getErasureCodingPolicy}} return the effective EC
policy (null) for both files and directories, for ease of use. Yes, let's file
a follow-on JIRA for {{getActualErasureCodingPolicy}}.
* Grammar/typo in doc: "enfore the direcotry" -> "force the directory"
* How hard is it to further hide the special replication policy name, e.g. just
call it "REPLICATION" or better, set it with a command like "hdfs ec setPolicy
-replicate" and don't expose it as a new policy? I think Rakesh recommended
this before, and though worse from a code perspective, it's better from a user
perspective.
* If we can't do the above, it'd make the suggestion of suing some more fake
looking parameters like "REPLICATION-0-0-1K" to make it clear that these
parameters are meaningless.

> The idea of this jira is to provide a new {{replicated EC policy}} so that we
> can override the EC policy on a parent directory and go back to just
> replicating the files based on replication factors.
