Todd Lipcon created HDFS-3956: --------------------------------- Summary: QJM: purge temporary files when no longer within retention period Key: HDFS-3956 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3956 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Components: ha Affects Versions: QuorumJournalManager (HDFS-3077) Reporter: Todd Lipcon Assignee: Todd Lipcon Priority: Minor
After doing a bunch of fault testing, I noticed that the JNs had a bunch of temporary files left around in their journal directories which were no longer within the retention period. For example, if a JN crashes in the middle of recovery, it can leave around a file like {{edits_inprogress_123.epoch=10}}. These files are handy to keep around for forensics/debugging while they are still in their retention period, but we should not leave them forever. The normal purging policy should apply. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
