Manoj Govindassamy commented on HADOOP-13055:
---------------------------------------------
[~andrew.wang],
HADOOP-14136 has requested for DefaultFS to fallback whenever the mounts are
not resolvable. Kind of Hierarchical Mount FS support for ViewFS but only at
the root level. This does bring in whole new set of cases to consider for all
other supported FS operations on ViewFS, but I am going to investigate on what
it takes to get fallback DefaultFS for ViewFS. Would your concern on this jira
HADOOP-13055 and the patch be addressed if we can club this in with the fix for
HADOOP-14136 ? Please share your thoughts.

> In a multi-cluster environment it is sometimes useful to operate on the root

> * A special case of the merge mount is where mount table's root is merged
> * with the root (slash) of another file system:
> * <ul>
> * <li> fs.viewfs.mounttable.default.linkMergeSlash=hdfs://nn99/
> * </ul>
