> If during a write, the dfsclient sees that a block replica location for a newly allocated block is not-connectable, it re-requests the NN to get a fresh set of replica locations of the block. It tries this dfs.client.block.write.retries times (default 3), sleeping 6 seconds between each retry ( see DFSClient.nextBlockOutputStream).
> This setting works well when you have a reasonable size cluster; if u have few datanodes in the cluster, every retry maybe pick the dead-datanode and the above logic bails out.
> Our solution: when getting block location from namenode, we give nn the excluded datanodes. The list of dead datanodes is only for one block allocation.
