----------------------------------

             Summary: Use proper blocksize to choose target for blocks
                 Key: HDFS-7868
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7868
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: zhouyingchao
            Assignee: zhouyingchao


In BlockPlacementPolicyDefault.java:isGoodTarget, the passed-in blockSize is 
used to determine if there is enough room for a new block on a data node. 
However, in two conditions the blockSize might not be proper for the purpose: 
(a) the passed in block size is just the size of the last block of a file, 
which might be very small (for e.g., called from 
BlockManager.ReplicationWork.chooseTargets). (b) A file which might be created 
with a smaller blocksize.
In these conditions, the calculated scheduledSize might be smaller than the 
actual value, which finally might lead to following failure of writing or 
replication.
