Ming Ma commented on HDFS-3998:
-------------------------------

Ha, thanks Todd. Our big clusters are using hadoop 1.0 equivalent and it 
doesn't have this feature. In hadoop 2.0, listCorruptFileBlocks API is added 
and both corrupt_files.jsp and "fsck -listcorruptfileblocks" can provide most 
of what I want.

1. Being able to retrieve corrupt blocks from NN sounds like an useful feature 
to port to hadoop 1.0.
2. Block with one replica is still bad; It will be nice to distinguish that 
from the rest of under replicated blocks.

> We have some big clusters. Sometimes we want to find out the list of missing 
> blocks or blocks with only one replica quickly. Currently fsck has to take a 
> path as input and it then recursively check for inconsistency. That could 
> take a long time to find the missing blocks and the files the missing blocks 
> belong to. It will be useful to speed this up. For example, it could go 
> directly to missing blocks stored in NN and do the file lookup instead.
