Rushabh S Shah commented on HDFS-9087:
--------------------------------------

[~eclark]: Thanks for reporting the issue.
You might want to look at HDFS-8845.
Before that patch, the datanode was traversing all the subdirectories under 
each volume and was trying to create a file.
But in that patch, it will only scan the finalized directory (not the 
subdirectory), rbw and temp directory.
That should not make the disk busy even the scan is going across all the 
volumes at the same time.

> If all datanodes are started across a cluster at the same time (or errors in 
> the network cause ioexceptions) there can be storms where lots of datanodes 
> check their disks at the exact same time.
