>
> Currently HDFS NFS gateway only supports HDFS as the underlying filesystem.
> Federated HDFS with ViewFS helps in improving the scalability of the name nodes. However NFS is not supported with ViewFS.
> With this change, ViewFS using HDFS as the underlying filesystem can be exported using NFS. ViewFS mount table will be used to determine the exports which needs to be supported.
> Some important points
> 1) This patch only supports HDFS as the underlying filesystem for ViewFS.
> 2) This patch add support to add more than one export point in the NFS gateway
> 3) Root filesystem of the ViewFS will not be mountable for NFS gateway with ViewFS,
>    however this will not be the case for NFS gateway with HDFS
> 4) A filehandle now apart from the field will also contain an identifier to identify the name node, this will be used to map to correct name node for file operations.
> Please find the attached pdf document which helps in explaining the design and the solution.
