Jing Zhao edited comment on HDFS-4882 at 11/17/14 8:04 PM: ----------------------------------------------------------- bq. Is there any reason we can't simply recover the lease anyway, even though the minimal replication has not been met? There are a lot of cases where we just can't get to the minimum replication (i.e. 1-node cluster, etc.). I don't see a lot of value in letting these leases linger forever. I agree with [~cmccabe] here. I do not think we should block anything just because the penultimate block cannot reach the minimum replication. To me this is similar with the scenario that one block of the file is missing/corrupted (even if the min replication is 1). For append case since we do not append data directly to the penultimate block thus I think should be ok. was (Author: jingzhao): bq.
