better handling of volume failure in Data Node storage
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-457
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: data-node
            Reporter: Boris Shkolnik


Current implementation shuts DataNode down completely when one of the 
configured volumes of the storage fails.
This is rather wasteful behavior because it  decreases utilization (good 
storage becomes unavailable) and imposes extra load on the system (replication 
of the blocks from the good volumes). These problems will become even more 
prominent when we move to mixed (heterogeneous) clusters with many more volumes 
per Data Node.
