------------------------------
Oh, ok. I was unable to follow what was going on. Mixing up their order threw
me off (I'm still not sure what is going on here. Maybe if you can answer my
above question that would help -- thanks).

> Some large Hlog files(Larger than 10G) appeared in our environment, and I got
> the reason why they got so huge:
> 1. The replicas is less than the expect number. So the method of
> checkLowReplication will be called each sync.
> 2. The method checkLowReplication request log-roll first, and set
> logRollRequested as true:
> {noformat}
> private void checkLowReplication() {
> // if the number of replicas in HDFS has fallen below the initial
> // value, then roll logs.
> try {
> int numCurrentReplicas = getLogReplication();
> if (numCurrentReplicas != 0 &&
> numCurrentReplicas < this.initialReplication) {
> LOG.warn("HDFS pipeline error detected. " +
> "Found " + numCurrentReplicas + " replicas but expecting " +
> this.initialReplication + " replicas. " +
> " Requesting close of hlog.");
> requestLogRoll();
> logRollRequested = true;
> }
> } catch (Exception e) {
> LOG.warn("Unable to invoke DFSOutputStream.getNumCurrentReplicas" + e +
> " still proceeding ahead...");
> }
> }
> {noformat}
> 3.requestLogRoll() just commit the roll request. It may not execute in time,
> for it must got the un-fair lock of cacheFlushLock.
> But the lock may be carried by the cacheflush threads.
> 4.logRollRequested was true until the log-roll executed. So during the time,
> each request of log-roll in sync() was skipped.
> Here's the logs while the problem happened(Please notice the file size of
> hlog "193-195-5-111%3A20020.1309937386639" in the last row):
