> HDFS Bolt can end up in an unrecoverable state
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: STORM-969
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-969
> Project: Apache Storm
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: storm-hdfs
> Reporter: Aaron Dossett

>
> The body of the HDFSBolt.execute() method is essentially one try-catch block.
> The catch block reports the error and fails the current tuple. In some
> cases the bolt's FSDataOutputStream object (named 'out') is in an
> unrecoverable state and no subsequent calls to execute() can succeed.
> To produce this scenario:
> - process some tuples through HDFS bolt
> - put the underlying HDFS system into safemode
> - process some more tuples and receive a correct ClosedChannelException
> - take the underlying HDFS system out of safemode
> - subsequent tuples continue to fail with the same exception
> The three fundamental operations that execute takes (writing, sync'ing,
> rotating) need to be isolated so that errors from each are specifically
> handled.
