Hairong Kuang commented on HADOOP-2757:
---------------------------------------

> In the case when all the datanode(s) in a pipeline go down but the namenode 
> is alive, the close still hangs. is this the case you are referring to?
Yes, if the dfs client hang is caused by down datanodes, then HADOOP-4703 
should fix the problem. Could you please doublecheck if this is true?

> Should DFS outputstream's close wait forever?

> Currently {{DFSOutputStream.close()}} waits for ever if Namenode keeps 
> throwing {{NotYetReplicated}} exception, for whatever reason. Its pretty 
> annoying for a user. Shoud the loop inside close have a timeout? If so how 
> much? It could probably something like 10 minutes.
