Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-2882:
--------------------------------------------
Did you reproduce the problem? If so, what were the steps to reproduce?
Also, your patch seems to make the DataNode loop endlessly trying to initialize
any block pools that don't come up. I don't think that's what we want to do
here.
> DN continues to start up, even if block pool fails to initialize

> I started a DN on a machine that was completely out of space on one of its
> drives. I saw the following:
> 2012-02-02 09:56:50,499 FATAL
> org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.datanode.DataNode: Initialization failed for
> block pool Block pool BP-448349972-172.29.5.192-1323816762969 (storage id

> but the DN continued to run, spewing NPEs when it tried to do block reports,
> etc. This was on the HDFS-1623 branch but may affect trunk as well.
