TestBalancer waits forever, errs without giving information -----------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-1808 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1808 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: data-node, name-node Affects Versions: 0.22.0 Reporter: Matt Foley Assignee: Matt Foley In three locations in the code, TestBalancer waits forever on a condition. Failures result in Hudson/Jenkins "Timeout occurred" error message with no information about where or why. Need to replace with TimeoutExceptions that throw a stack trace and useful info about the failure mode. In waitForHeartBeat(), it is waiting on an exact match for a value that may be coarsely quantized -- i.e., significant deviation from the exact "expected" result may occur. Replace with an allowed range of result. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
