Arpit Gupta commented on HDFS-3094:
-----------------------------------

Thanks for the review Todd. I will make appropriate changes to the branch 1 and trunk.

bq. I don't follow the following comment:
+ //make sure the user did not sent force or noninteractive as the clusterid or an empty clusterid
Can you clarify it?

What i mean there is that if the user entered a wrong command where they did not specify a clusterid.

{code}
./bin/hadoop namenode -format -clusterid -force
{code}

> Currently the bin/hadoop namenode -format prompts the user for a Y/N to setup the directories in the local file system.
> -force : namenode formats the directories without prompting
> -nonInterActive : namenode format will return with an exit code of 1 if the dir exists.
