[jira] [Created] (HDFS-5102) Snapshot names should not be allowed
to contain slash characters
Aaron T. Myers created HDFS-5102:
------------------------------------
Summary: Snapshot names should not be allowed to contain slash characters
Key: HDFS-5102
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5102
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: snapshots
Affects Versions: 2.1.0-beta
Reporter: Aaron T. Myers
Snapshots of a snapshottable directory are allowed to have arbitrary names. Presently, if you create a snapshot with a snapshot name that begins with a "/" character, this will be allowed, but later attempts to access this snapshot will fail because of the way the {{Path}} class deals with consecutive "/" characters. I suggest we disallow "/" from appearing in snapshot names.
An example of this is in the first comment on this JIRA.
