Colin Patrick McCabe updated HDFS-7443:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Datanode upgrade to BLOCKID_BASED_LAYOUT fails if duplicate block
files are present in the same volume (was: Datanode upgrade to
BLOCKID_BASED_LAYOUT sometimes fails)
> Datanode upgrade to BLOCKID_BASED_LAYOUT fails if duplicate block files are
> present in the same volume
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-7443
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7443
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Reporter: Kihwal Lee
> Priority: Blocker
>
> When we did an upgrade from 2.5 to 2.6 in a medium size cluster, about 4% of
> datanodes were not coming up. They treid data file layout upgrade for
> BLOCKID_BASED_LAYOUT introduced in HDFS-6482, but failed.
> All failures were caused by {{NativeIO.link()}} throwing IOException saying
> {{EEXIST}}. The data nodes didn't die right away, but the upgrade was soon
> retried when the block pool initialization was retried whenever
> {{BPServiceActor}} was registering with the namenode. After many retries,
> datenodes terminated. This would leave {{previous.tmp}} and {{current}} with
> no {{VERSION}} file in the block pool slice storage directory.
> Although {{previous.tmp}} contained the old {{VERSION}} file, the content was
> in the new layout and the subdirs were all newly created ones. This
> shouldn't have happened because the upgrade-recovery logic in {{Storage}}
> removes {{current}} and renames {{previous.tmp}} to {{current}} before
> retrying. All successfully upgraded volumes had old state preserved in their
> {{previous}} directory.
> In summary there were two observed issues.
> - Upgrade failure with {{link()}} failing with {{EEXIST}}
> - {{previous.tmp}} contained not the content of original {{current}}, but
> half-upgraded one.
> We did not see this in smaller scale test clusters.
