---------------------------------

             Summary: CacheAdmin commands fail when using . as the path
                 Key: HDFS-5513
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5513
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: tools
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Stephen Chu
            Priority: Minor


The hdfs CLI commands generally accept "." as a path argument.
e.g.
{code}
hdfs dfs -rm .
hdfs dfsadmin -allowSnapshot .
{code}

I don't think it's very common to use the path "." but the CacheAdmin commands will fail saying that it cannot create a Path from an empty string.

{code}
[schu@hdfs-c5-nfs ~]$ hdfs cacheadmin -removeDirectives -path .
