on Spark when observer Namenode is used

> Handle HDSF read inconsistencies on Spark when observer Namenode is used
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-36810
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-36810
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core, SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Venkata krishnan Sowrirajan
> Priority: Major
>
> In short, with HDFS HA and with the use of [Observer Namenode|[https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/ObserverNameNode.html],] the read-after-write consistency is only available when both the write and the read happens from the same client.
> But if the write happens on executor and the read happens on the driver, then the reads would be inconsistent causing application failure issues. This can be fixed by calling `FileSystem.msync` before making any read calls where the client thinks the write could have possibly happened elsewhere.
> This issue is discussed in greater detail in this [discussion|https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/spark-dev/202108.mbox/browser]
