Erik Krogen commented on HDFS-13898:
------------------------------------

Nice find [~csun]! The change to production code LGTM. For the tests:
* You don't need to make the changes to {{MiniQJMHACluster}}. You can set the 
number of DataNodes like:
{code}
builder.getDfsBuilder().numDataNodes(3);
{code}
I also don't really understand why we need to tweak the number of DNs if the 
BlockManager is mocked anyway?
* I don't really find the BlockManager mocking to be very clean. I think we 
should be able to achieve something similar by using a real BlockManager, but 
injecting some fake blocks:
{code}
NameNodeAdapter.getNamesystem(namenodes[2]).getBlockManager().addBlockCollection(...)
{code}
or creating real blocks, but then corrupting them:
{code}
dfsCluster.corruptBlockOnDataNodes()
{code}

> It only throws {{RetriableException}} for active NN so requests on observer 
> may just fail.
