> We have seen the cases of validating data copy using checksum then the content of target changing. It turns out the target wasn't closed successfully, so it was still under-construction.  One hour later, a lease recovery kicked in and truncated the block.
> Although this can be prevented in many ways, if there is no valid use case for getting file checksum from under-construction blocks, can it be disabled?  E.g. Datanode can throw an exception if the replica is not in the finalized state.
