Pasting [~jingzhao]'s comment > from the jira: > {quote} > ...whether we need to let NameNode wait for all the block_received msgs to > announce the replica is safe. Looking into the code, now we have > # NameNode knows the DataNodes involved when initially setting up the > writing pipeline > # If any DataNode fails during the writing, client bumps the GS and > finally reports all the DataNodes included in the new pipeline to NameNode > through the updatePipeline RPC. > # When the client received the ack for the last packet of the block (and > before the client tries to close the file on NameNode), the replica has been > finalized in all the DataNodes. > Then in this case, when NameNode receives the close request from the client, > the NameNode already knows the latest replicas for the block. Currently the > checkReplication call only counts in all the replicas that NN has already > received the block_received msg, but based on the above #2 and #3, it may be > safe to also count in all the replicas in the > BlockUnderConstructionFeature#replicas? > {quote} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
