> Some maintenance works (e.g., upgrading RAM or add disks) on DataNode only
> takes a short amount of time (e.g., 10 minutes). In these cases, the users do
> not want to report missing blocks on this DN because the DN will be online
> shortly without data lose. Thus, we need a maintenance mode for a DN so that
> maintenance work can be carried out on the DN without having to decommission
> it or the DN being marked as dead.
