> Key: HDFS-1940
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1940
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: data-node
> Affects Versions: 0.20.204.0
> Reporter: Rajit
> Assignee: Bharath Mundlapudi
>
> There is a situation where one datanode can have more than one copy of same
> block due to a disk fails and comes back after sometime in a datanode. And
> these duplicate blocks are not getting deleted even after datanode and
> namenode restart.
> This situation can only happen in a corner case , when due to disk failure,
> the data block is replicated to other disk of the same datanode.
> To simulate this scenario I copied a datablock and the associated .meta file
> from one disk to another disk of same datanode, so the datanode is having 2
> copy of same replica. Now I restarted datanode and namenode. Still the extra
> data block and meta file is not deleted from the datanode
