             Summary: DiskChecker should perform some file IO
                 Key: HADOOP-13738
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13738
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Arpit Agarwal
            Assignee: Arpit Agarwal


DiskChecker can fail to detect total disk/controller failures indefinitely. We 
have seen this in real clusters. DiskChecker performs simple permissions-based 
checks on directories which do not guarantee that any disk IO will be attempted.

A simple improvement is to write some data and flush it to the disk.
