Varun Sharma commented on HDFS-4721:
------------------------------------
Thanks [~saint....@gmail.com]
I personally prefer at least info() level logging because debug logs are
typically disabled and its hard to trace down if the stale node stuff actually
worked or it did not work. Though I am not sure from your comment if you wanted
me to bump up the log level or bring it down.

Could you take another look at the v5 patch - it has updated tests.
The build seems to have failed but the console should me nothing. It builds and
passes tests locally.

Should i reattach the patch.
Thanks

> This was observed while doing HBase WAL recovery. HBase uses append to write
> to its write ahead log. So initially the pipeline is setup as
> DN1 --> DN2 --> DN3
> This WAL needs to be read when DN1 fails since it houses the HBase
> regionserver for the WAL.
> HBase first recovers the lease on the WAL file. During recovery, we choose
> DN1 as the primary DN to do the recovery even though DN1 has failed and is
> not heartbeating any more.
> Avoiding the stale DN1 would speed up recovery and reduce hbase MTTR. There
> are two options.
> a) Ride on HDFS 3703 and if stale node detection is turned on, we do not
> choose stale datanodes (typically not heart beated for 20-30 seconds) as
> primary DN(s)
> b) We sort the replicas in order of last heart beat and always pick the ones
> which gave the most recent heart beat
> Going to the dead datanode increases lease + block recovery since the block
> goes into UNDER_RECOVERY state even though no one is recovering it actively.
> Please let me know if this makes sense. If yes, whether we should move
> forward with a) or b).
> Thanks
