DFS Write pipeline does not detect defective datanode correctly if it times out.

                 Key: HADOOP-3339
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3339
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.16.0
            Reporter: Raghu Angadi
            Assignee: Raghu Angadi



When DFSClient is writing to DFS, it does not correctly detect the culprit 
datanode (rather datanodes do not inform) properly. Say, the last datanode in 
in 3 node pipeline is is too slow or defective. In this case, pipeline removes 
the first two datanodes in first two attempts. The third attempt has only the 
3rd datanode in the pipeline and it will fail too. If the pipeline detects the 
bad 3rd node when the first failure occurs, the write will succeed in the 
second attempt. 

I will attach example logs of such cases. I think this should be fixed in 
0.17.x.
