> When we did an upgrade from 2.5 to 2.6 in a medium size cluster, about 4% of datanodes were not coming up.  They treid data file layout upgrade for BLOCKID_BASED_LAYOUT introduced in HDFS-6482, but failed.
> All failures were caused by {{NativeIO.link()}} throwing IOException saying {{EEXIST}}.  The data nodes didn't die right away, but the upgrade was soon retried when the block pool initialization was retried whenever {{BPServiceActor}} was registering with the namenode.  After many retries, datenodes terminated.  This would leave {{previous.tmp}} and {{current}} with no {{VERSION}} file in the block pool slice storage directory.  
> Although {{previous.tmp}} contained the old {{VERSION}} file, the content was in the new layout and the subdirs were all newly created ones.  This shouldn't have happened because the upgrade-recovery logic in {{Storage}} removes {{current}} and renames {{previous.tmp}} to {{current}} before retrying.  All successfully upgraded volumes had old state preserved in their {{previous}} directory.
> In summary there were two observed issues.
> - Upgrade failure with {{link()}} failing with {{EEXIST}}
> - {{previous.tmp}} contained not the content of original {{current}}, but half-upgraded one.
> We did not see this in smaller scale test clusters.
