> I noticed that data-nodes are removing blocks during a rather prolonged distributed upgrade when the name-node is in safe mode.
> This happened on my experimental cluster with accelerated block report rate.
> By definition in safe mode the name-node should not
> - accept client requests to change the namespace state, and
> - schedule block replications and/or block removal for the data-nodes.
> We don't want any unnecessary replications until all blocks are reported during startup.
> We also don't want to remove blocks if safe mode is entered manually.
> In heartbeat processing we explicitly verify that the name-node is in safe-mode and do not return any block commands to the data-nodes.
> Block reports can also return block commands, which should be banned during safe mode.
