Ayush Saxena commented on HDFS-13774:
-------------------------------------

Thanks [~SouryakantaDwivedy] for putting up the issue.

The reason for not returning the name of policy is that "Replication" is not an 
EC policy. It just acts like a flag to make the directory take the default 
Replication policy instead of an EC policy defined on its parent.

Even if you use the ec -listPolicies command you won't see replication there.

> EC: "hdfs ec -getPolicy" is not retrieving policy details when the special 
> REPLICATION policy set on the directory

>  Erasure coding: "hdfs ec -getPolicy"" is not retrieving policy details when 
> the special REPLICATION policy set on the directory
> Steps :-
>  - Create a directory "testEC"
> - Get the EC policy for the directory [Received message as : "The erasure 
> coding policy of /testEC is unspecified" ]
> - Enable any Erasure coding policy like "XOR-2-1-1024k"
> - Set the EC Policy on the Directory
> - Get the EC policy for the directory [Received message as : "XOR-2-1-1024k" ]
> - Now again set the EC Policy on the directory as "replicate" special 
> REPLICATION policy
> - Get the EC policy for the directory [Received message as : "The erasure 
> coding policy of /testEC is unspecified" ]
>  The policy is being set for the Directory ,but while retrieving policy 
> details its throwing error as 
>  policy for the directory is unspecified which is wrong behavior
