Josh Elser commented on HDFS-5856: ---------------------------------- Current patch also applies cleanly to branch-2. > DataNode.checkDiskError might throw NPE > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5856 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5856 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: datanode > Affects Versions: 2.2.0 > Reporter: Josh Elser > Assignee: Josh Elser > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HDFS-5856.diff > > > Running a small 2.2.0 cluster with a heavy workload. I noticed in the > DataNode log that when faced with network exceptions, I would sometimes get a > NullPointerException from checkDiskError. > Looking at the code, if the Exception that is handed to checkDiskError > contains a null message, the checks that try to identify if the Exception is > network-related will throw a NPE. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
