Vinayakumar B commented on HDFS-7899:
-------------------------------------
I think it will be very difficult to make out diagnostic message from just an
EOF to show to client.
Message can be slightly altered to give a different look, ex: "Unexpected EOF
while trying read response" ?
Agree ?

> Currently, a DN disconnection for reasons other than connection timeout or
> refused messages, such as an EOF message as a result of rejection or other
> network fault, reports in this manner:

> This is not very clear to a user (warn's at the hdfs-client). It could likely
> be improved with a more diagnosable message, or at least the direct reason
> than an EOF.
