Maybe say The encryption mechanism may be specific to the filesystem and the specific= installation of the FS; no guarantees of quality can be made. {{isEncrypte= d()=3D=3Dtrue}} does not guarantee that the file cannot be read by others, = merely that some form of encryption has been applied. Similarly {{isEncrypted()=3D=3Dfalse} does not imply the file is unencrypte= d =E2=80=94it may be a filesystem-wide encryption system such as an encrypt= ed hard drive, an encryption that is not visible to the Hadoop FS APIs. > add FileSystem contract specification for FSDataInputStream and FSDataOut= putStream#isEncrypted > -------------------------------------------------------------------------= --------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-11026 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11026 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: documentation, test > Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.6.0 > Reporter: Charles Lamb > Assignee: Charles Lamb > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HADOOP-11026-prelim.001.patch, HADOOP-11026.001.patc= h > > > Following on to HDFS-6843, the contract specification for FSDataInputStre= am and FSDataOutputStream needs to be updated to reflect the addition of is= Encrypted. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
