Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-4288:
--------------------------------------
bq. Non-23 branches appear to have a rudimentary fix for this issue.
Can you point out what exactly it is in branch-2 and trunk which appears to
have fixed this?
> NN accepts incremental BR as IBR in safemode

> Key: HDFS-4288
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4288
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: namenode
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0, 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0
> Reporter: Daryn Sharp
> Assignee: Daryn Sharp
> Priority: Critical
>
> If a DN is ready to send an incremental BR and the NN goes down, the DN will
> repeatedly try to reconnect. The NN will then process the DN's incremental
> BR as an initial BR. The NN now thinks the DN has only a few blocks, and
> will ignore all subsequent BRs from that DN until out of safemode -- which it
> may never do because of all the "missing" blocks on the affected DNs.
