Anu Engineer commented on HADOOP-13738:
---------------------------------------

+1, pending Jenkins. Thanks for updating the patch and fixing the issues. I 
will leave this JIRA unresolved till monday evening (oct/31) in case [~kihwal] 
or [~xyao] has any further comments.
As for the I/O getting stuck in a disk, I am hoping the normal I/O on that 
datanode would have caught that issue and errors already propagated. So I am 
okay with not solving that in DiskChecker.

> DiskChecker can fail to detect total disk/controller failures indefinitely. 
> We have seen this in real clusters. DiskChecker performs simple 
> permissions-based checks on directories which do not guarantee that any disk 
> IO will be attempted.
> A simple improvement is to write some data and flush it to the disk.
