> Key: HDFS-4884
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4884
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 2.0.4-alpha
> Reporter: Junping Du
> Assignee: Junping Du
>
> The BlockPlacementPolicy (BPP) is extensible and already multiple instances
> in system: BlockPlacementPolicyDefault, BlockPlacementPolicyWithNodeGroup,
> BlockPlacementPolicyRAID, etc. When cluster is switched from one BPP to
> another BPP, HDFS will not check if block locations conform the new BPP. Now,
> you can manually fsck on specific directory to identify replica placement
> policy is violated for some blocks but have no way to fix it so far. We
> should provide way to fix it.
