Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-4288:
---------------------------------------

bq. Better yet, the logic would be to (seqNum == 0 || seqNum != lastSeqNum). 
However this requires writable/RPC changes on 23, and protobuf changes on 
trunk/2 and trying to ensure backwards compatibility with an optional protobuf 
field, etc. Would you be ok if I filed another jira?
Separate jira should be fine. We may want to mark this jira as 0.23 only.

> If a DN is ready to send an incremental BR and the NN goes down, the DN will 
> repeatedly try to reconnect.  The NN will then process the DN's incremental 
> BR as an initial BR.  The NN now thinks the DN has only a few blocks, and 
> will ignore all subsequent BRs from that DN until out of safemode -- which it 
> may never do because of all the "missing" blocks on the affected DNs.
