Allen Wittenauer resolved HDFS-338. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Closing this as stale. > When a block is severely under replicated at creation time, a request for > block replication should be scheduled immediately > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-338 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-338 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Runping Qi > > During writing a block to data nodes, if the dfs client detects a bad data > node in the write pipeline, it will re-construct a new data pipeline, > excluding the detected bad data node. This implies that when the client > finishes writing the block, the number of the replicas for the block > may be lower than the intended replication factor. If the ratio of the number > of replicas to the intended replication factor is lower than > certain threshold (say 0.68), then the client should send a request to the > name node to replicate that block immediately. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
