Ming Ma created HADOOP-10597: -------------------------------- Summary: Evaluate if we can have RPC client back off when server is under heavy load Key: HADOOP-10597 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10597 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Ming Ma
Currently if an application hits NN too hard, RPC requests be in blocking state, assuming OS connection doesn't run out. Alternatively RPC or NN can throw some well defined exception back to the client based on certain policies when it is under heavy load; client will understand such exception and do exponential back off, as another implementation of RetryInvocationHandler. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
