Virajith Jalaparti updated HADOOP-17072:
----------------------------------------
    Description: 
In a federated setting (HDFS federation, federation across multiple buckets on 
S3, multiple containers across Azure storage), certain system tools/pipelines 
require the ability to map paths to the clusters/accounts.

Consider the example of GDPR compliance/retention jobs that need to go over 
various datasets, ingested over a period of T days and remove/quarantine 
datasets that are not properly annotated/have reached their retention period. 
Such jobs can rely on renames to a global trash/quarantine directory to 
accomplish their task. However, in a federated setting, efficient, atomic 
renames (as those within a single HDFS cluster) are not supported across the 
different clusters/shards in federation. As a result, such jobs will need to 
leverage a trash/quarantine directory per cluster/shard. Further, they would 
need to map from a particular path to the cluster/shard that contains this path.

To address such cases, this JIRA proposes to get add two new methods to 
{{FileSystem}}: {{getClusterRoot}} and {{getClusterRoots()}}.
