> There's been some confusion on the mailing list about when WALs get retained / cleaned up once replication is on at all in a cluster. (ref [this thread|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/hbase-user/201502.mbox/%3CCAMUu0w9aOVBo7kGULiM9tXrULirqs9fm-3ra3pQccYpW_17uOw@mail.gmail.com%3E])
> We should add a NOTE in the replication section that wals are saved across enable/disable so long as there are peers. There looks like there might also be some confusing language around replication being enabled in the configs vs the enable/disable suspension mechanism.
> We should also add a troubleshooting item specific for "my HDFS space keeps growing and it's all in oldWALs."
