> Thanks to HADOOP-1955, even if one of the replica is corrupted, the block should get replicated from a good replica relatively fast.
> Created this ticket to continue the discussion from http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1955#action_12531162.
> bq. 2. Delete corrupted source replica
> bq. 3. If all replicas are corrupt, stop replication.
> For (2), it'll be nice if the namenode can delete the corrupted block if there's a good replica on other nodes.
> For (3), I prefer if the namenode can still replicate the block.
> Before 0.14, if the file was corrupted, users were still able to pull the data and decide if they want to delete those files. (HADOOP-2063)
> In 0.14 and later, we cannot/don't replicate these blocks so they eventually get lost.
> To make the matters worse, if the corrupted file is accessed, all the corrupted replicas would be deleted except for one and stay as replication factor of 1 forever.
