Hairong Kuang commented on HADOOP-2757:
---------------------------------------
I do not think this patch solves the infinite loop problem with close. It
seems to me the patch targets for a different problem. Do you know why your
client hang? Is it possible that your client hit HADOOP-4703?
> Should DFS outputstream's close wait forever?

> Currently {{DFSOutputStream.close()}} waits for ever if Namenode keeps
> throwing {{NotYetReplicated}} exception, for whatever reason. Its pretty
> annoying for a user. Shoud the loop inside close have a timeout? If so how
> much? It could probably something like 10 minutes.
