[jira] [Created] (HDFS-11111) Delete something in .Trash using "rm" should be forbidden without safety option

Lantao Jin created HDFS-11111:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Delete something in  .Trash using "rm" should be forbidden without safety option 
                 Key: HDFS-11111
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11111
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: hdfs
            Reporter: Lantao Jin


As we discussed in HDFS-11102, double confirmation seems not a graceful solution for user. But deleting trash files unexpected is till an incident issue. The behaviour of user I worried is rm something in trash, not rm something out trash with "skipTrash" option(That's a very purposeful action).

So it is not the same case with HADOOP-12358. The solution is throwing an exception and remind user to add "-trash" option to delete dirs in trash for safely:
{code}
Can not delete somthing in trash directly! Please add "-trash" or "-T" in "rm" command to do that.
{code}
