Wei-Chiu Chuang commented on HDFS-8872:
---------------------------------------
Or, instead of calling it as "missing blocks" on the web UI, it should be
called "corrupt blocks".
I'd like to hear comments from web UI experts, [~wheat9] could you comment?
Thanks.
> Reporting of missing blocks is different in fsck and namenode ui/metasave

> Key: HDFS-8872
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8872
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Reporter: Rushabh S Shah
> Assignee: Rushabh S Shah
>
> 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.
