Summary: HDFSDirectory fendcing issue
Key: BLUR-439
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BLUR-439
Project: Apache Blur
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Blur
Affects Versions: 0.2.4
Reporter: Aaron McCurry
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 0.2.4
We recently had and issue that created a corrupt index.
What happened?
Shard Server 1 (SS1) owned a shard of a table (SH1) and was performing an index
import when a layout change in the table occurred mid import. The segment
version of this shard was at "_0". The SS1 server performed the work of the
import by adding in files from an external directory. At this point the SH1
has not been committed and so the current committed version is still "_0".
Although the files from the next segment version "_1" have been written and not
committed yet.
Then SH1 shard moved to another shard server (SS2) and once open the version
that was open was also "_0" which is correct. During the move the directory
lock is now owned by SS2 which is also correct. The SS2 process started the
import process again for the external directory that was not committed. It
also writes new files for the "_1" segment.
Now back on the SS1 server, the commit is underway and the directory lock is
checked and an exception is thrown because this process no longer owns the
lock. During the rollback the SS1 server deletes what is thinks are the "_1"
segments that it wrote but the files are actually from the SS2 import process.
Once the files are deleted the abort and rollback is complete and the index has
returned to it's "_0" state.
However on the SS2 server the commit is moving forward for the "_1" segment
(which now the files have been deleted by the SS1) and the index is corrupted.
The problem happened when the SS1 server
