>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-16261
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Bryan Beaudreault
>            Assignee: Bryan Beaudreault
>            Priority: Major
>
> When a block is moved with REPLACE_BLOCK, the new location is recorded in the 
> NameNode and the NameNode instructs the old host to in invalidate the block 
> using DNA_INVALIDATE. As it stands today, this invalidation is async but 
> tends to happen relatively quickly.
> I'm working on a feature for HBase which enables efficient healing of 
> locality through Balancer-style low level block moves (HBASE-26250). One 
> issue is that HBase tends to keep open long running DFSInputStreams and 
> moving blocks from under them causes lots of warns in the RegionServer and 
> increases long tail latencies due to the necessary retries in the DFSClient.
> One way I'd like to fix this is to provide a configurable grace period on 
> async invalidations. This would give the DFSClient enough time to refresh 
> block locations before hitting any errors.
