------------------------------------
cc\ [~tdas], what is your opinion? Thanks a lot.
> Possibly data may be ruined in Spark Streaming's WAL mechanism.

> Key: SPARK-5142
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5142
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Streaming
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: Saisai Shao
>
> Currently in Spark Streaming's WAL manager, data will be written into HDFS
> with multiple tries when meeting failure, because of lacking of transactional
> guarantee, previously partial-written data is not rolled back and the retried
> data will be appended to the last, this will ruin the file and make the
> WriteAheadLogReader to read data with failure.
> Firstly I think this problem is hard to fix because HDFS do not support
> truncate operation(HDFS-3107) or random write with specific offset.
> Secondly, I think if we meet such write exception, it is better not to try
> again, try again will ruin the file and make read abnormal.
> Sorry if I misunderstand anything.
