Ravi Prakash updated HDFS-4862:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: HDFS-4862.patch

Hi Kihwal! There already exists a method to check for low resources 
(areResourcesLow()). So I don't understand why we need to club that in 
isManual. To me isManual clearly means that the safemode was entered into 
manually. Moreover I could also argue that the NN should be taken out of 
low-resource safemode automatically when ResourceMonitor detects adequate 
resources, so it may not necessarily be a manual step. 
This is a patch which IMHO corrects these behaviors. Could you please review it?

> HDFS-1594 changed isManual to this
> {code}
> private boolean isManual() {
>   return extension == Integer.MAX_VALUE && !resourcesLow;
> }
> {code}
> One immediate impact of this is that when resources are low, the NN will 
> throw away all block reports from DNs. This is undesirable.
