Erik Krogen reassigned HDFS-14272:
----------------------------------

    Assignee: Erik Krogen

> [SBN read] HDFS command line tools does not guarantee consistency

>                 Key: HDFS-14272
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-14272
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: tools
>         Environment: CDH6.1 (Hadoop 3.0.x) + Consistency Reads from Standby + 
> SSL + Kerberos + RPC encryption
>            Reporter: Wei-Chiu Chuang
>            Assignee: Erik Krogen
>            Priority: Major

> It is typical for integration tests to create some files and then check their 
> existence. For example, like the following simple bash script:
> {code:java}
> # hdfs dfs -touchz /tmp/abc
> # hdfs dfs -ls /tmp/abc
> {code}
> The test executes HDFS bash command sequentially, but it may fail with 
> Consistent Standby Read because the -ls does not find the file.
> Analysis: the second bash command, while launched sequentially after the 
> first one, is not aware of the state id returned from the first bash command. 
> So ObserverNode wouldn't wait for the the edits to get propagated, and thus 
> fails.
> I've got a cluster where the Observer has tens of seconds of RPC latency, and 
> this becomes very annoying. (I am still trying to figure out why this 
> Observer has such a long RPC latency. But that's another story.)
