[jira] [Created] (HDFS-2219) Fsck should work with fully qualified file paths.
Fsck should work with fully qualified file paths. - Key: HDFS-2219 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2219 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 0.23.0 Reporter: Jitendra Nath Pandey Priority: Minor Fsck takes absolute paths, but doesn't work with fully qualified file path URIs. In a federated cluster with multiple namenodes, it will be useful to be able to specify a file path for any namenode using its fully qualified path. Currently, a non-default file system can be specified using -fs option. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
