---------------------------------
    Resolution: Incomplete

> Possibly data may be ruined in Spark Streaming's WAL mechanism.
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: SPARK-5142
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5142
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: DStreams
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
>            Reporter: Saisai Shao
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: bulk-closed
>
> Currently in Spark Streaming's WAL manager, data will be written into HDFS 
> with multiple tries when meeting failure, because of lacking of transactional 
> guarantee, previously partial-written data is not rolled back and the retried 
> data will be appended to the last, this will ruin the file and make the 
> WriteAheadLogReader to read data with failure.
> Firstly I think this problem is hard to fix because HDFS do not support 
> truncate operation(HDFS-3107) or random write with specific offset.
> Secondly, I think if we meet such write exception, it is better not to try 
> again, try again will ruin the file and make read abnormal.
> Sorry if I misunderstand anything.
