Kihwal Lee resolved HDFS-5446.
------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> Consider supporting a mechanism to allow datanodes to drain outstanding work
> during rolling upgrade
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-5446
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5446
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: datanode
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Nathan Roberts
>
> Rebuilding write pipelines is expensive and this can happen many times during
> a rolling restart of datanodes (i.e. during a rolling upgrade). It seems like
> it might help if datanodes could be told to drain current work while
> rejecting new requests - possibly with a new response indicating the node is
> temporarily unavailable (it's not broken, it's just going through a
> maintenance phase where it shouldn't accept new work).
> Waiting just a few seconds is normally enough to clear up a good percentage
> of the open requests without error, thus reducing the overhead associated
> with restarting lots of datanodes in rapid succession.
> Obviously would need a timeout to make sure the datanode doesn't wait forever.
