Joep Rottinghuis commented on HDFS-5277: ---------------------------------------- Interestingly enough there is a workaround for the expunge by passing the URL to the fs command. The help (boths docs and when typing "hdfs dfs" does not seem to show that additional optional argument. w/o looking at the code users won't know about this workaround. > hadoop fs -expunge does not work for federated namespace > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5277 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5277 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.5-alpha > Reporter: Vrushali C > > We noticed that hadoop fs -expunge command does not work across federated > namespace. This seems to look at only /user/<username>/.Trash instead of > traversing all available namespace and expunging from individual namespace. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
