Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-6898:
-------------------------------------
Yes the patch reserves space for appends. We reserve (maxBlockLength -
currentBlockLength) bytes when a block is opened for append.
> DN must reserve space for a full block when an RBW block is created

> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: datanode
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0
> Reporter: Gopal V
> Assignee: Arpit Agarwal

> DN will successfully create two RBW blocks on the same volume even if the
> free space is sufficient for just one full block.
> One or both block writers may subsequently get a DiskOutOfSpace exception.
> This can be avoided by allocating space up front.
