Vinayakumar B commented on HDFS-9239:
-------------------------------------
Even though this Jira along with HDFS-9311 is New Feature, IMO it would be
worth to merge to Branch-2.7. Lot of deployments would be benefited.
What you think [~kihwal]?
If okay, I would be happy to post a patch for branch-2.7, if available patches
not apply on branch-2.7.

> This issue proposes introduction of a new feature: the DataNode Lifeline
> Protocol. This is an RPC protocol that is responsible for reporting liveness
> and basic health information about a DataNode to a NameNode. Compared to the
> existing heartbeat messages, it is lightweight and not prone to resource
> contention problems that can harm accurate tracking of DataNode liveness
> currently. The attached design document contains more details.
