Todd Lipcon commented on HADOOP-5713: ------------------------------------- Just wanted to drop a note to say that we've seen this problem in practice on a reasonable size (multirack) cluster as well. We're working on getting some better data to correlate the log messages with datanode failure events, but as far as we can tell the symptoms look identical. Dhruba/Raghu: At this point I am relatively unfamiliar with this part of the code, but if you guys have a good idea of how to solve this, I'm happy to dive in and try to produce a patch in the next couple of weeks based on your guidance.
