Haohui Mai commented on HDFS-5939:
----------------------------------
Two questions. {{In NetworkTopology}}:
# Under what circumstances, {{getNode(excludedScope)}} will exclude all
datanodes?
# Is it safe to assert that {{numOfDatanodes}} always is greater or equal than
0?

> When trying to access hdfs via webhdfs, and when datanode is dead, user will
> see an exception below without any clue that it's caused by dead datanode:
> $ curl -i -X PUT
> ".../webhdfs/v1/t1?op=CREATE&user.name=<userName>&overwrite=false"
> ...
> {"RemoteException":{"exception":"IllegalArgumentException","javaClassName":"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException","message":"n
> must be positive"}}
> Need to fix the report to give user hint about dead datanode.
