Harsh J commented on HDFS-3358:
-------------------------------

I get that already Suresh. I should ask more clearly, sorry:

{{223 files and directories, 138 blocks = 361 total.}}

I need to simply know WHY do we add blocks and inodes here?

Showing counts is one thing, and I think its OK to show counts. Why add counts 
and call it something vague like "total". A "total" of what?

Should it matter to an admin what the "total" is? If so, how should he look at 
it?
                
> Specify explicitly that the NN UI status total is talking of persistent 
> objects on heap.

> The NN shows, on its web UI, something like:
> {{223 files and directories, 138 blocks = 361 total.}}
> Followed by heap stats.
> We should clarify this line is talking of objects and is related to the heap 
> summaries. Perhaps just being explicit about java-terms would be nicer:
> {{223 files and directories, 138 blocks = 361 total objects.}}
