Hairong Kuang commented on HADOOP-1184:
---------------------------------------
The new patch changed APIs for class UnderReplicatedBlocks to take an
additional parameter decommissionedReplicas. This parameter is used only when
numReplicas is equal to zero. But since the possibilty of numReplicas with a
value of 0 is quite slim, I feel that making API changes for this special case
is not neccessary.
> Decommission fails if a block that needs replication has only one replica

> If the only replica of a block resides on a node being decommissioned, then
> the decommission command does not complete. The blocks do not get added to
> neededReplication because neededReplications.update() believes that the
> number of current replicas is zero.
