Thanks for your response. Are you telling while reading or writing a file make RF=0..?
Anyway write will fail if we make RF=0 since min replica is one by default. Coming read I am getting eof exception even RF=0; Here doubt is actually block got corrupted (I checked using fsck and even NN UI also shows block got corrupted) After reverting changes what ever changes I did. Read is successfull by using fsshell commands(cat,text and get)..Only readfully throwing EOF Please correct me If I am wrong.

Try using replication factor=0.

Now Edited((To get check-sum error)) written file in DN where block is located(physically). Then I tried to read file ,then I got could not obtain block since block got corrupted and check-sum error from DN logs. After that I removed what ever I edited from block . Then I try to read file,here I am able to read by using fsshell commands even though block got corrupted(by fsck report)..But I am getting eof execption using readfully api. After reverting not getting any checksum error from DN logs. Please let me know the behavior once revert back to original Thanks And Regards Brahma Reddy
