----------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> Balancer throws NPE
> -------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-8993
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8993
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: balancer & mover
> Affects Versions: 2.4.1
> Reporter: He Xiaoqiao
>
> Balancer may throw NPE because the following {{if Statements}} at line 709 of
> Balancer.java
> {code:title=Balancer.java}
> synchronized (block) {
> // update locations
> for (String datanodeUuid : blk.getDatanodeUuids()) {
> final BalancerDatanode d = datanodeMap.get(datanodeUuid);
> if (datanode != null) { // not an unknown datanode
> block.addLocation(d);
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> Before moving block, Balancer divides into two step to get all DNs info &
> some blocks of DN from NN. Regarding one DN commission after
> {{getDatanodeReport}} then {{getBlockList}} and one block's target is above
> DN just right, It will throw NPE when dispatcher.
