Inigo Goiri updated HDFS-9910:
------------------------------
Summary: Datanode heartbeats can get blocked by disk in
FsDatasetImpl#checkBlock() (was: Datanode heartbeats can get blocked by disk
in {{FsDatasetImpl#checkBlock()}})
> Datanode heartbeats can get blocked by disk in FsDatasetImpl#checkBlock()
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-9910
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9910
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: datanode
> Affects Versions: 2.7.2
> Reporter: Inigo Goiri
> Assignee: Hua Liu
>
> When a data node needs to transfer a block, it validates the block in the
> heartbeat thread invoking the {{checkBlock()}} method of {{FsDatasetImpl}},
> where it checks whether the block exists and gets the block length. If the
> block is valid, it then spins off a thread to do the actual block transfer.
> We found that during heavy disk IO the heartbeat thread hangs on
> {{replicaInfo.getBlockFile().exists()}} for more than 10 minutes.
