Vinitha Reddy Gankidi commented on HDFS-10301:
----------------------------------------------

I apologize for attaching a wrong patch. Thanks for pointing it out [~cmccabe]. 
I uploaded the correct patch now (008) that calls the isStorageReport method. 
Adding an optional list of storage ID strings in the .proto file would add more 
overhead since these optional parameters would have to be sent with default 
values for all other block report RPCs in addition to the last RPC of the block 
report. I can add more comments in the code to explain what's going on. 
Thoughts?

> BlockReport retransmissions may lead to storages falsely being declared 
> zombie if storage report processing happens out of order

> When NameNode is busy a DataNode can timeout sending a block report. Then it 
> sends the block report again. Then NameNode while process these two reports 
> at the same time can interleave processing storages from different reports. 
> This screws up the blockReportId field, which makes NameNode think that some 
> storages are zombie. Replicas from zombie storages are immediately removed, 
> causing missing blocks.
