Bryan Beaudreault updated HDFS-16261:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Configurable grace period around invalidation of replaced blocks
(was: Configurable grace period around deletion of invalidated blocks)
> Configurable grace period around invalidation of replaced blocks
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-16261
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-16261
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Bryan Beaudreault
> Assignee: Bryan Beaudreault
> Priority: Major
>
> When a block is moved with REPLACE_BLOCK, the new location is recorded in the
> NameNode and the NameNode instructs the old host to in invalidate the block
> using DNA_INVALIDATE. As it stands today, this invalidation is async but
> tends to happen relatively quickly.
> I'm working on a feature for HBase which enables efficient healing of
> locality through Balancer-style low level block moves (HBASE-26250). One
> issue is that HBase tends to keep open long running DFSInputStreams and
> moving blocks from under them causes lots of warns in the RegionServer and
> increases long tail latencies due to the necessary retries in the DFSClient.
> One way I'd like to fix this is to provide a configurable grace period on
> async invalidations. This would give the DFSClient enough time to refresh
> block locations before hitting any errors.
