He Xiaoqiao commented on HDFS-14186:
------------------------------------

as mentioned above, the core issue: namenode uses blocks number as condition to 
leave safe mode rather than ALL blocks replication number, then heartbeat 
checker go back into working order and DN could be set DEAD if its heartbeat 
does not send to namenode for long time over than 630s by default, it is not 
related to lifeline overall i think.

> blockreport storm slow down namenode restart seriously in large cluster

> In the current implementation, the datanode sends blockreport immediately 
> after register to namenode successfully when restart, and the blockreport 
> storm will make namenode high load to process them. One result is some 
> received RPC have to skip because queue time is timeout. If some datanodes' 
> heartbeat RPC are continually skipped for long times (default is 
> heartbeatExpireInterval=630s) it will be set DEAD, then datanode has to 
> re-register and send blockreport again, aggravate blockreport storm and trap 
> in a vicious circle, and slow down (more than one hour and even more) 
> namenode startup seriously in a large (several thousands of datanodes) and 
> busy cluster especially. Although there are many work to optimize namenode 
> startup, the issue still exists. 
> I propose to postpone dead datanode check when namenode have finished startup.
> Any comments and suggestions are welcome.
