[jira] [Created] (HDFS-5114) getMaxNodesPerRack() in BlockPlacementPolicyDefault does not take decommissioning nodes into account.

Kihwal Lee created HDFS-5114:
--------------------------------

             Summary: getMaxNodesPerRack() in BlockPlacementPolicyDefault does not take decommissioning nodes into account.
                 Key: HDFS-5114
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5114
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: namenode
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.1.0-beta
            Reporter: Kihwal Lee


If a large proportion of data nodes are being decommissioned, one or more racks may not be writable. However this is not taken into account when the default block placement policy module invokes getMaxNodesPerRack(). Some blocks, especially the ones with a high replication factor, may not be able to fully replicated until those nodes are taken out of dfs.include.  It can actually block decommissioning itself.
