             Summary: Inadequate information for handling catch clauses
                 Key: HDFS-13321
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13321
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: datanode
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Zhenhao Li


Their are some situations that different exception types are caught, but the 
handling of those exceptions can not show the differences of those types. Here 
are the code snippet we found which have this problem:

*hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/BPServiceActor.java*

[https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/bec79ca2495abdc347d64628151c90f5ce777046/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/BPServiceActor.java]

At Line *233* and Line *235.* We can see that two exception types are caught, 
but the logging statements here can not show the exception type at all.

Also there are comments for these two catch clauses respectively, one is 
"{color:#707070}// namenode is busy{color}", the other one is 
"{color:#707070}// namenode is not available", {color:#333333}but the log 
messages are too generic, can not show the "busy" or "not available" of 
namenode.{color}{color}

It may cause confusions to the person who are reading the log, the person can 
not know what exception happened here and can not distinguish logs generated by 
these two statements.

 Maybe adding stack trace information to these two logging statements and 
change the log message to handle specific situations is a simple way to improve 
it.
