David Mollitor commented on HDFS-13157:
---------------------------------------
OK.
I dropped the first patch. I'm in a bit of a rush, didn't get a change to run
all the unit tests locally, but wanted to get some movement on this
none-the-less.
As is often the case with this project, I had to touch more than I would have
wanted. There is a weird dependency on the Iterator with
[BlockManager.java|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/blockmanagement/BlockManager.java#L1589]
I really don't understand why {{BlockManager}} is trying to take a random
sample here. Maybe someone else knows why?

> From what I understand of [DataNode
> decommissioning|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/42a1c98597e6dba2e371510a6b2b6b1fb94e4090/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/blockmanagement/DatanodeAdminManager.java]
> it appears that all the blocks are scheduled for removal _in order._. I'm
> not 100% sure what the ordering is exactly, but I think it loops through each
> data volume and schedules each block to be replicated elsewhere. The net
> affect is that during a decommission, all of the DataNode transfer threads
> slam on a single volume until it is cleaned out. At which point, they all
> slam on the next volume, etc.
> Please randomize the block list so that there is a more even distribution
> across all volumes when decommissioning a node.
