----------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> Move processing of postponed over-replicated blocks to a background task
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-7421
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7421
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ha, namenode
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Reporter: Aaron T. Myers
> Assignee: Aaron T. Myers
>
> In an HA environment, we postpone sending block invalidates to DNs until all
> DNs holding a given block have done at least one block report to the NN after
> it became active. When that first block report after becoming active does
> occur, we attempt to reprocess all postponed misreplicated blocks inline with
> the block report RPC. In the case where there are many postponed
> misreplicated blocks, this can cause block report RPCs to take an
> inordinately long time to complete, sometimes on the order of minutes, which
> has the potential to tie up RPC handlers, block incoming RPCs, etc. There's
> no need to hurriedly process all postponed misreplicated blocks so that we
> can quickly send invalidate commands back to DNs, so let's move this
> processing outside of the RPC handler context and into a background thread.
