Arpit Agarwal commented on HADOOP-13738:
----------------------------------------
Thanks for the review [~xyao].
[~kihwal], it didn't sound like you had any objections to the proposed approach
but I'll wait until the end of this week before committing.
Filed HDFS-11086 to separately address some more improvements in DN's use of
DiskChecker. This will address the check taking minutes failure case you
brought up.
> DiskChecker should perform some disk IO

> DiskChecker can fail to detect total disk/controller failures indefinitely.
> We have seen this in real clusters. DiskChecker performs simple
> permissions-based checks on directories which do not guarantee that any disk
> IO will be attempted.
> A simple improvement is to write some data and flush it to the disk.
