Vinitha Reddy Gankidi commented on HDFS-10301:
----------------------------------------------
[~daryn] That is a good suggestion. Zombies should be handled by the
heartbeat's pruning of excess storages.
Why do we need to wait until block reports for all the storages in the
heartbeat are processed?
Do you want to submit a patch for this?
> BlockReport retransmissions may lead to storages falsely being declared
> zombie if storage report processing happens out of order

> When NameNode is busy a DataNode can timeout sending a block report. Then it
> sends the block report again. Then NameNode while process these two reports
> at the same time can interleave processing storages from different reports.
> This screws up the blockReportId field, which makes NameNode think that some
> storages are zombie. Replicas from zombie storages are immediately removed,
> causing missing blocks.
