re-enable faulty TaskTracker storage without restarting TT, when appropriate ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-3077 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3077 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Improvement Components: tasktracker Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0 Reporter: Matt Foley In MAPREDUCE-2928, Ravi Gummadi proposed: bq. we can add LocalStorage.checkBadLocalDirs() call to TT.initialize() that can do disk-health-check of bad local dirs and add dirs to the good local dirs list if they become good. and Eli Collins added: bq. Sounds good. Since transient disk failures may cause a file system to become read-only (causing permanent failures) sometimes re-mounting is sufficient to recover in which case it makes sense to re-enable faulty disks w/o TT restart. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
