Hairong Kuang commented on HDFS-1142: ------------------------------------- Interesting discussion... As long as I understand, once lease recovery starts, the first thing that each replica datanode does is kill the block receiver. So the old client will fail since the pipleline is completely torn down.The idea is that no writer is allowed, i.e., no modification to the file is allowed from any client, while the file's lease recovery is in progress. So in this sense, it would be nice to reassign the lease to NN but still maintain the soft lease semantics that Konstantin described. > Lease recovery doesn't reassign lease when triggered by append() > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-1142 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1142 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 0.21.0 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Attachments: hdfs-1142.txt, hdfs-1142.txt > > > If a soft lease has expired and another writer calls append(), it triggers > lease recovery but doesn't reassign the lease to a new owner.
