[jira] [Created] (HDFS-4837) Allow DFSAdmin to run when HDFS is not the default file system

Mostafa Elhemali created HDFS-4837:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow DFSAdmin to run when HDFS is not the default file system
                 Key: HDFS-4837
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4837
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Mostafa Elhemali
            Assignee: Mostafa Elhemali


When Hadoop is running a different default file system than HDFS, but still have HDFS namenode running, we are unable to run dfsadmin commands.

I suggest that DFSAdmin use the same mechanism as NameNode does today to get its address: look at dfs.namenode.rpc-address, and if not set fallback on getting it from the default file system.
