Nicolas Spiegelberg commented on HDFS-1186:
-------------------------------------------
Is there a reason why this is 0.20-append only? What did 0.21 & 0.22 do to fix
this issue?
> 0.20: DNs should interrupt writers at start of recovery
> -------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HDFS-1186
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1186
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: data-node
> Affects Versions: 0.20-append
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon

> When block recovery starts (eg due to NN recovering lease) it needs to
> interrupt any writers currently writing to those blocks. Otherwise, an old
> writer (who hasn't realized he lost his lease) can continue to write+sync to
> the blocks, and thus recovery ends up truncating data that has been sync()ed.
