Description

Hadoop document has that

expunge
Usage: hdfs dfs -expunge
Empty the Trash.

However when I run that command. It returns following message from shell output : The configured checkpoint interval is 0 minutes. Using an interval of 360 minutes that is used for deletion instead. Trash is not emptied.
