> NN should not let the balancer run in safemode

>
> Key: HDFS-15695
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-15695
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: namenode
> Reporter: Ahmed Hussein
> Assignee: Ahmed Hussein
> Priority: Major
>
> [~daryn] reported that when the balancer moves a block, the target DN block
> reports the new location and hints to invalidate the source DN. The NN will
> not issue invalidations in safemode, so every moved block appears to be in
> excess. The data structures bloat and greatly increase the chance of a full
> GC.
> The NN should refuse to provide block locations to the balancer while in
> safemode.
