[jira] [Created] (HDFS-4078) Handle replication in snapshots

Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE created HDFS-4078:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Handle replication in snapshots
                 Key: HDFS-4078
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4078
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: name-node
            Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE
            Assignee: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE


Without snapshots, file replication is the same as block replication.

With snapshot, the file replication R_o of the original file and the file replication R_s of the snapshot file could possibly be different.  Since the blocks are shared between the original file and the snapshot file, block replication is max(R_o, R_s).  If there are more than one snapshots, block replication is the max file replication of the original file and all snapshot files.

Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE resolved HDFS-4078.
------------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: Snapshot (HDFS-2802)
     Hadoop Flags: Reviewed

Since trunk does not yet have snapshot, file replication and block replication are the same.  Let's change trunk when we merge the branch.

I have commit this.
