Chen Liang updated HDFS-12043:
------------------------------
    Attachment: HDFS-12043.002.patch

Thanks [~arpitagarwal] for the comments! Post v002 patch.

The other comments are addressed. Regarding the {{if (pendingNum > 0)}} branch, 
my understanding is that this means there are unfinished replication going on, 
not necessarily failed re-replication. It could still finish successfully, also 
it may timeout and counted by the other timeout counter. What do you think?

Also in v002 patch, changed the place of incrementing timeout re-replication to 
the place where it gets detected in {{PendingReconstructionBlocks}}'s thread. 
v001 patch actually delays the increment by calling in {{BlockManager}}'s 
thread.

> We occasionally see that the under-replicated block count is not going down 
> quickly enough. We've made at least one fix to speed up block replications 
> (HDFS-9205) but we need better insight into the current state and activity of 
> the block re-replication logic. For example, we need to understand whether is 
> it because re-replication is not making forward progress at all, or is it 
> because new under-replicated blocks are being added faster.
> We should include additional metrics:
> # Cumulative number of blocks that were successfully replicated. 
> # Cumulative number of re-replications that timed out.
> # Cumulative number of blocks that were dequeued for re-replication but not 
> scheduled e.g. because they were invalid, or under-construction or 
> replication was postponed.
>  
> The growth rate of of the above metrics will make it clear whether block 
> replication is making forward progress and if not then provide potential 
> clues about why it is stalled.
> Thanks [~arpitagarwal] for the offline discussions.
