dhruba borthakur commented on MAPREDUCE-1510:
---------------------------------------------

will it be easy for you t add that particular test to the unit test? The reason 
I am asking is because this patch actually removes an non-relevant unit test; 
if it could instead replace it by a relevant unit test, that will be great. 
Thanks.

> Currently, if a source file has a replication factor lower or equal to that 
> expected by RAID, the file is skipped and no parity file is generated. I 
> don't think this is a good behavior since parity files can get wrongly 
> deleted, leaving the source file with a low replication factor. In that case, 
> raid should be able to recreate the parity file.
