             Summary: Move dfsadmin triggerBlockReport and metaSave to 
debugadmin
                 Key: HDFS-11941
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11941
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.9.0, 3.0.0-alpha4
            Reporter: Andrew Wang


Filing a JIRA for discussion. While reviewing the [dfsadmin 
commands|https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HDFSCommands.html#dfsadmin]
 some of them seem better suited for debugadmin:

* triggerBlockReport: similar to recoverLease in debugadmin, you don't need 
this unless HDFS is in a bad state
* metasave: dumps NN datastructures to a side file. Seems purely for debugging.

DebugAdmin commands notably do not need to be compatible between releases and 
do not have Java API equivalents in HdfsAdmin.
