> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: dfs
> Affects Versions: 0.18.0
> Reporter: dhruba borthakur

>
> When a client detects a error while writing to a block, it starts the
> generation-stamp-protocol to remove stale replicas. At the same time, if the
> namenode experiences a lease expiry event for that file, the namenode starts
> the generation-stamp-protocol for the same block. Now, the client and thr
> namenode ping-pongs trying to stamp the block replicas. This ping-pong can
> continue for a long time.
