Hello!
Could you please explain, why this check exists in class
"org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem", method
"recoverLeaseInternal":
Lease leaseFile = leaseManager.getLeaseByPath(src);
if (leaseFile != null && leaseFile.equals(lease)) {
throw new AlreadyBeingCreatedException(
"failed to create file " + src + " for " + holder +
" for client " + clientMachine +
" because current leaseholder is trying to recreate file.");
It prevents leaseholder to recover the lease if the lease already belongs
to him.
This method is called both in append() and create() methods
of org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNodeRpcServer
It seems to me that current leaseholder should be able to append the file
normally. Am I wrong?
Hadoop version: 2.5.1
