> At LinkedIn we run many HDFS volumes that are federated by either ViewFilesystem or Router Based Federation. As our number of hdfs volumes grows, we have a growing need to migrate data seemlessly across volumes.
> Many frameworks have a notion of staging or temp directories, but those directories often live in random locations. We want an API getEnclosingRoot, which provides the root path a file or dataset. 
> In ViewFilesystem / Router Based Federation, the enclosingRoot will be the mount point.
> We will also take into account other restrictions for renames like encryptions zones.
> If there are several paths (a mount point and an encryption zone), we will return the longer path
