> During start up the name-node is in safe mode and is counting blocks reported 
> by data-nodes. When the number of minimally replicated blocks reaches the 
> configured threshold the name-node leaves safe mode. Currently all blocks are 
> counted towards the threshold including the ones that are under construction. 
> The under-construction blocks should be excluded from the count, because they 
> need to be recovered, which may take long time (lease expires in 1 hour by 
> default). Also the recovery may result in deleting those blocks so counting 
> them in the blocks total is incorrect.
