> To get debug info, we dynamically change the logger of BlockPlacementPolicyDefault to debug when namenode is running. However, the Namenode crashs. From the log, we find some NPE in BlockPlacementPolicyDefault.chooseRandom. Because *StringBuilder builder* will be used 4 times in BlockPlacementPolicyDefault.chooseRandom method. While the *builder* only initializes in the first time of this method. If we change the logger of BlockPlacementPolicyDefault to debug after the part, the *builder* in remaining part is *NULL* and cause *NPE*
