Ashwin Shankar commented on HDFS-6840:
--------------------------------------
Since we are planning to make a 2.5.1 release, should this jira be made a
blocker for 2.5.1 ?
> Clients are always sent to the same datanode when read is off rack
> ------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HDFS-6840
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6840
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0
> Reporter: Jason Lowe
> Assignee: Andrew Wang
> Priority: Critical
>
> After HDFS-6268 the sorting order of block locations is deterministic for a
> given block and locality level (e.g.: local, rack. off-rack), so off-rack
> clients all see the same datanode for the same block. This leads to very
> poor behavior in distributed cache localization and other scenarios where
> many clients all want the same block data at approximately the same time.
> The one datanode is crushed by the load while the other replicas only handle
> local and rack-local requests.
