Subject: Directory Modified Time
To: hdfs-user@hadoop.apache.org
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Directory Modified Time is earlier than the files it contains for some
of my folders on HDFS. Is this usual? I would like to be able to
hadoop fs -rmr /path/to/some/dir
if the dirs modified time is older than 5 days or whatever.


Thanks.
Tom
