Ming Ma commented on HADOOP-10597:
----------------------------------
Thanks, [~arpitagarwal]. We have been using "no server retry policy" option in
production clusters for some time and things are fine. So I agree with you; at
least we don't have to add it in the initial version. If later we have
scenarios that require the server to supply retry policies, we can add it at
that point.
> Evaluate if we can have RPC client back off when server is under heavy load

> Currently if an application hits NN too hard, RPC requests be in blocking
> state, assuming OS connection doesn't run out. Alternatively RPC or NN can
> throw some well defined exception back to the client based on certain
> policies when it is under heavy load; client will understand such exception
> and do exponential back off, as another implementation of
> RetryInvocationHandler.
