----------------------------------------

             Summary: AlreadyBeingCreatedException "current leaseholder is 
trying to recreate file" when trying to append to file
                 Key: HDFS-11367
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11367
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: hdfs-client
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
         Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.8

            Reporter: Dmitry Goldenberg


We have code which creates a file in HDFS and continuously appends lines to the 
file, then closes the file at the end. This is done by a single dedicated 
thread.

We specifically instrumented the code to make sure only one 'client'/thread 
ever writes to the file because we were seeing "current leaseholder is trying 
to recreate file" errors.

For some background see this for example: 
https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Storage-Random-Access-HDFS/How-to-append-files-to-HDFS-with-Java-quot-current-leaseholder/m-p/41369

This issue is very critical to us as any error terminates a mission critical 
application in production.

Intermittently, we see the below exception, regardless of what our code is 
doing which is create the file, keep appending, then close:

org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException(org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.protocol.AlreadyBeingCreatedException):
 failed to create file /data/records_20170125_1.txt for 
DFSClient_NONMAPREDUCE_-167421175_1 for client 1XX.2XX.1XX.XXX because current 
leaseholder is trying to recreate file.
