> 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
> Attachments: HDFS-14272.000.patch, HDFS-14272.001.patch

> 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.)
