Hi Asanjar,
My understanding is that it returns serialized BlockLocation instances which 
holds the location information for an HDFS block. It contains hostnames and 
hostnames:ports of datanodes apart from some other info.
I am a newbie in Hadoop, somebody may connfirm on this.
Regards,Pravin

 hi all,
I have an hdfs question, my understanding is, namenode sends a list of 
datanodes to hadoop client to send data blocks based on replication setting. 
The question is, does the list from namenode has IP addresses or hostnames, or 
both of the datanodes.

NN -------> Client  ----> DN1 ------> DN2 ------> DN3
