---------------------------------------
{quote}We already have snapshots, protected directories and trash. Aside from
banning deletes completely, there are only so many things we can do to prevent
user error losing data.

Thanks [~sodonnell], I see what you meant here. Agree that in general there are
multiple approaches available in HDFS to prevent complete data loss.
Thanks

> Suppose the user tries to delete the data from CLI with the "-skipTrash"
> param but by mistake, he deleted a couple of directories but actually, that
> directory user want to retain then their is no way to retrieve the delete
> data.
> It will be good to have a confirm message like: "Skip the trash for the
> hdfs:///dri1/file.txt files? (Y or N)" ro we can completely disable the
> "-skipTrash" param.
