[jira] [Commented] (HDFS-6509) create a /.reserved/raw filesystem
namespace
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6509?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14070992#comment-14070992 ]
Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-6509:
----------------------------------------
I'll be honest I haven't been following closely this set of jiras. So let me apologize in advance. But this jira makes me wonder: what happens when a non-admin uses distcp? .e.g., a lot of systems are configured that don't allow HDFS to run MR jobs. Will they not be allowed to distcp encrypted data?
