Konstantin Shvachko commented on HDFS-2452:
-------------------------------------------
Sleeping an arbitrary # of seconds is not a good solution, as it makes tests
flaky, passing on some nodes and failing on other because of different
environments. If you need to wait, then wait for a specific event (thread
started in the case) rather than relying on passing time.
> DataXceiver thread already handled the Throwable there.
You are right, mocking getXceiverCount() doesn't work. May be Cos can help with
that.
> OutOfMemoryError in DataXceiverServer takes down the DataNode
