Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-4865:
--------------------------------------
looks better now. I think you need to make sure these 'manual scan' blocks are
scanned without a throttle, otherwise they will be scanned pretty slowly. That
is what I would want DN to do if I am asking them scan asap.
nit: it is better rename 'manuallyScanList' to 'manualScanList'?
bq. > I think it is no good to run scan process in another thread, since it's
possible that the regular scan process will scan same block with the manually
scan progress.
may be.. if you are fine with latencies of the order of minutes for start of
scan of once such a block is queued.
