> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ipc
> Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0
> Reporter: Kihwal Lee

> Priority: Minor

> Attachments: addr_change_dfs-1.patch.txt, addr_change_dfs.patch.txt

>
> The current RPC client implementation and the client-side callers assume that
> the hostname-address mappings of servers never change. The resolved address
> is stored in an immutable InetSocketAddress object above/outside RPC, and the
> reconnect logic in the RPC Connection implementation also trusts the resolved
> address that was passed down.
> If the NN suffers a failure that requires migration, it may be started on a
> different node with a different IP address. In this case, even if the
> name-address mapping is updated in DNS, the cluster is stuck trying old
> address until the whole cluster is restarted.
> The RPC client-side should detect this situation and exit or try to recover.
> Updating ConnectionId within the Client implementation may get the system
> work for the moment, there always is a risk of the cached address:port become
> connectable again unintentionally. The real solution will be notifying upper
> layer of the address change so that they can re-resolve and retry or
> re-architecture the system as discussed in HDFS-34.
> For 0.20 lines, some type of compromise may be acceptable. For example, raise
> a custom exception for some well-defined high-impact upper layer to do
> re-resolve/retry, while other will have to restart. For TRUNK, the HA work
> will most likely determine what needs to be done. So this Jira won't cover
> the solutions for TRUNK.
