Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-4000:
--------------------------------------

I remember I had done something here "recently" for automatically ignoring 
empty WALs or WALs with corrupt headers. The assumption was that if we didn't 
get the sync of the header done, there's nothing else worthwhile in the WAL to 
consider.

Is this unique to that case?

>             Project: Accumulo
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.2
>         Environment: very large cluster, accumulo 1.6.2, hadoop 2.5.0 (cdh 
> 5.3)
>            Reporter: Eric Newton

> Had a hardware failure on a single node within a large cluster.  Tablets were 
> migrated away, but one tablet would not recover.  The Closer run by the 
> master to release the write lease on the WAL failed repeatedly.
> Afterwards, it was determined the file was small, probably just opened and 
> used at the moment the machine failed.  The block could not be recovered from 
> any replicas.
> One question raised: does the write pipeline acknowledge the sync, before the 
> write pipeline completes?
