Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-7611:
-------------------------------------------

Thanks for digging deep into it.  We should fix the snapshot bug.

Is there a way to change TestFileTruncate for working around the bug?  It is a 
bad advertisement for the new truncate feature if TestFileTruncate keeps 
failing.

> deleteSnapshot and delete of a file can leave orphaned blocks in the 
> blocksMap on NameNode restart.

> If quotas are enabled a combination of operations *deleteSnapshot* and 
> *delete* of a file can leave  orphaned  blocks in the blocksMap on NameNode 
> restart. They are counted as missing on the NameNode, and can prevent 
> NameNode from coming out of safeMode and could cause memory leak during 
> startup.
