dhruba borthakur commented on HDFS-724:
---------------------------------------
I am still looking at the patch, two comments:
1. Is it possible to get rid of lastDataNodeRun() completely? This method
existed because the last datanode in the pipeline needed to send heartbeats.
Now, thatis not needed anymore.
2. In DFSClient.java, one change is:
{quote}
long timeout = (stage == BlockConstructionStage.DATA_STREAMING)?
socketTimeout/2 - (now-lastPacket) : 1000;
{quote}
timeout could sometime be negative?
> Pipeline close hangs if one of the datanode is not responsive.

> In the new pipeline design, pipeline close is implemented by sending an
> additional empty packet. If one of the datanode does not response to this
> empty packet, the pipeline hangs. It seems that there is no timeout.
