Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-5535: ---------------------------------- [~stack]: If the local DN was added to {{deadNodes}} in a {{DFSInputStream}} because it was restarted, we may be able to (asynchronously?) probe and remove it from {{deadNodes}}. Then when a block boundary is crossed, the local node will get used again. If explicit restart notifications are complex or unreliable (due to timing & network, etc), we could do the recovery solely based on the failure mode. E.g. abrupt connection breakage by the remote end, connection refusal/reset, etc. Background ping thread can reintroduce it independent of on-going reads. I haven't checked how easy it is to track the cause of failures, so I can't say it is feasible just yet. > Umbrella jira for improved HDFS rolling upgrades > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-5535 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5535 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: datanode, ha, hdfs-client, namenode > Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.2.0 > Reporter: Nathan Roberts > Attachments: HDFSRollingUpgradesHighLevelDesign.pdf, > h5535_20140219.patch, h5535_20140220-1554.patch, h5535_20140220b.patch, > h5535_20140221-2031.patch, h5535_20140224-1931.patch, > h5535_20140225-1225.patch > > > In order to roll a new HDFS release through a large cluster quickly and > safely, a few enhancements are needed in HDFS.
