Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-13805: -------------------------------------- I don't like wiping all JNs with a single mis-executed command. This is a rare scenario so it it's probably safer for the admin to manually wipe JNs. > Journal Nodes should allow to format non-empty directories with "-force" > option > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-13805 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13805 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: journal-node > Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha4 > Reporter: Surendra Singh Lilhore > Assignee: Surendra Singh Lilhore > Priority: Major > Attachments: HDFS-13805.001.patch > > > HDFS-11112 completely restricted to re-format journalnode, but it should be > allowed when *"-force"* option is given.
