> we have seen an instance where a external outage caused many datanodes to 
> reboot at around the same time.  This resulted in many corrupted blocks. 
> These were recently written blocks; the current implementation of HDFS 
> Datanodes do not sync the data of a block file when the block is closed.
> 1. Have a cluster-wide config setting that causes the datanode to sync a 
> block file when a block is finalized.
> 2. Introduce a new parameter to the FileSystem.create() to trigger the new 
> behaviour, i.e. cause the datanode to sync a block-file when it is finalized.
> 3. Implement the FSDataOutputStream.hsync() to cause all data written to the 
> specified file to be written to stable storage.
