Rushabh S Shah updated HDFS-8872:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
Namenode ui and metasave will not report a block as missing if the only replica 
is on decommissioning/decomissioned node while fsck will show it as MISSING.
Since decommissioned node can be formatted/removed anytime, we can actually 
lose the block.
Its better to alert on namenode ui if the only copy is on 
decomissioned/decommissioning node.
