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

             Summary: update HDFS quotas guide: currently says setting quota fails if the directory would be in violation of the new quota
                 Key: HADOOP-8479
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8479
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Stephen Chu


http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r0.20.0/hdfs_quota_admin_guide.html

The guide says "The attempt to set a quota fails if the directory would be in violation of the new quota" for both Name Quotas and Space Quotas.

That doesn't seem to be the case, though. I can set the quota successfully even when the directory violates the new quota.
