Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-1773:
----------------------------------------
bq. Don't we need fully qualified URIs to handle multiple namenodes anyway?
The GC should create normalized relative paths for comparison. Absolute
paths would still be stored in metadata table and used if the GC actually needs
to delete something.
> Garbage collector may delete referenced files after upgrade

> Looking at the srouce code, it seems like the garbage collector uses a
> mixture of relative and absolute paths when determining what files to delete.
> I think if a deletion candidate is an absolute path and the reference is a
> relative path then it could delete the referenced file.
