Chris Nauroth commented on HDFS-8193:
-------------------------------------
Thank you for the response. That clarifies it for me.
If possible, would you please see if there is a way to make the delay visible
through metrics and the web UI? Perhaps you could even just populate the same
fields that were added in HDFS-5986 and HDFS-6385.
> Add the ability to delay replica deletion for a period of time

> Key: HDFS-8193
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8193
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: namenode
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0
> Reporter: Aaron T. Myers
> Assignee: Zhe Zhang
>
> When doing maintenance on an HDFS cluster, users may be concerned about the
> possibility of administrative mistakes or software bugs deleting replicas of
> blocks that cannot easily be restored. It would be handy if HDFS could be
> made to optionally not delete any replicas for a configurable period of time.
