> Currently, *BlockManager.metaSave* method (which is called by "-metasave" dfs 
> CLI command) reports both "under replicated" and "missing" blocks under same 
> metric *Metasave: Blocks waiting for reconstruction:* as shown on below code 
> snippet:
> {noformat}
>    synchronized (neededReconstruction) {
>       out.println("Metasave: Blocks waiting for reconstruction: "
>           + neededReconstruction.size());
>       for (Block block : neededReconstruction) {
>         dumpBlockMeta(block, out);
>       }
>     }
> {noformat}
> *neededReconstruction* is an instance of *LowRedundancyBlocks*, which 
> actually wraps 5 priority queues currently. 4 of these queues store different 
> under replicated scenarios, but the 5th one is dedicated for corrupt/missing 
> blocks. 
> Thus, metasave report may suggest some corrupt blocks are just under 
> replicated. This can be misleading for admins and operators trying to track 
> block missing/corruption issues, and/or other issues related to 
> *BlockManager* metrics.
> I would like to propose a patch with trivial changes that would report 
> corrupt blocks separately.
