Wei-Chiu Chuang updated HDFS-10360:
-----------------------------------
    Attachment: HDFS-10360.002.patch

Rev02: add log to record what files are being deleted during a DataNode 
reformat operation. There's no need to add extra JMX reporting code, as long as 
an IOException thrown adding the volume, it is added into JMX by the existing 
code.

The test failures seems unrelated. I don't have these test failures in my tree.

> Under certain circumstances, if the current/VERSION of a storage directory is 
> missing, DataNode may format the storage directory even though _block files 
> are not missing_.
> This is very easy to reproduce. Simply launch a HDFS cluster and create some 
> files. Delete current/VERSION, and restart the data node.
> After the restart, the data node will format the directory and remove all 
> existing block files:

> The bug is: DataNode assumes that if none of {{current/VERSION}}, 
> {{previous/}}, {{previous.tmp/}}, {{removed.tmp/}}, {{finalized.tmp/}} and 
> {{lastcheckpoint.tmp/}} exists, the storage directory contains nothing 
> important to HDFS and decides to format it.

> However, block files may still exist, and in my opinion, we should do 
> everything possible to retain the block files.
> I have two suggestions:
> # check if {{current/}} directory is empty. If not, throw an 
> InconsistentFSStateException in {{Storage#analyzeStorage}} instead of 
> asumming its not formatted. Or,
> # In {{Storage#clearDirectory}}, before it formats the storage directory, 
> rename or move {{current/}} directory. Also, log whatever is being 
> renamed/moved.
