sam rash updated HDFS-1262:
---------------------------
Attachment: hdfs-1262-1.txt
-test case for append and create failures.
-tried to get it so both cases fail fast, but create will hit the test timeout
(default for create that gets AlreadyBeingCreatedException is 5 retries with
60s sleep)
-append case fails in 30s w/o the fix worst case
> Failed pipeline creation during append leaves lease hanging on NN

> Ryan Rawson came upon this nasty bug in HBase cluster testing. What happened
> was the following:
> 1) File's original writer died
> 2) Recovery client tried to open file for append - looped for a minute or so
> until soft lease expired, then append call initiated recovery
> 3) Recovery completed successfully
> 4) Recovery client calls append again, which succeeds on the NN
> 5) For some reason, the block recovery that happens at the start of append
> pipeline creation failed on all datanodes 6 times, causing the append() call
> to throw an exception back to HBase master. HBase assumed the file wasn't
> open and put it back on a queue to try later
> 6) Some time later, it tried append again, but the lease was still assigned
> to the same DFS client, so it wasn't able to recover.
> The recovery failure in step 5 is a separate issue, but the problem for this
> JIRA is that the NN can think it failed to open a file for append when the NN
> thinks the writer holds a lease. Since the writer keeps renewing its lease,
> recovery never happens, and no one can open or recover the file until the DFS
> client shuts down.
