Arpit Agarwal created HDFS-6978: ----------------------------------- Summary: Directory scanner should correctly reconcile blocks on RAM disk Key: HDFS-6978 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6978 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Components: datanode Affects Versions: HDFS-6581 Reporter: Arpit Agarwal Assignee: Arpit Agarwal
Currently it would be a very unlikely situation for the directory scanner to encounter two replicas of the same block on different volumes. Hence the scanner does not handle this situation predictable. With memory storage, it is common to save blocks to persistent storage and eviction of the original RAM disk block could fail since the block is in use. In this situation, the directory scanner should never delete the block on persistent storage. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
