Xiaoqiao He commented on HDFS-15115:
------------------------------------
this case is very similar to HDFS-11827 in my opinion, not sure why HDFS-14103
revert these guard statement in branch trunk, any thought?

>
> To get debug info, we dynamically change the logger of
> BlockPlacementPolicyDefault to debug when namenode is running. However, the
> Namenode crashs. From the log, we find some NPE in
> BlockPlacementPolicyDefault.chooseRandom. Because *StringBuilder builder*
> will be used 4 times in BlockPlacementPolicyDefault.chooseRandom method.
> While the *builder* only initializes in the first time of this method. If we
> change the logger of BlockPlacementPolicyDefault to debug after the part, the
> *builder* in remaining part is *NULL* and cause *NPE*
