-------------------------------------
Thanks [~knanasi] for the patch.
{quote}A warning is shown if the cluster topology verify fails for all enabled
policies, when enabling a policy.
{quote}
I guess if we are enabling RS(6,3) warning should be shown wrt to the policy
which we are enabling.We should not be bothered about the others not in that
transaction.
{quote}Policy setting fails if the cluster topology verification fails for the
policy
{quote}
IMO This will be quite harsh and guess might be considered as incompatible
too.Moreover for EC File say RS(6,3) I guess It is not mandatory that it should
have strictly 9 DN's for successful write. In cases it can be successful with
lesser numbers too.
I think a warning if the policy that we are enabling is not supported should be
well enough.

>
> HDFS-12946 introduces a command for verifying if there are enough racks and
> datanodes for the enabled erasure coding policies.
> This verification could be executed for the erasure coding policy before
> enabling, setting or adding it and a warning message could be written if the
> verify fails, or the policy setting could be even failed in this case.
