Hi

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Socket Socket[addr=/10.86.203.112,port=1004,localport=35170] does not have a channel
at com.google.common.base.Preconditions.checkState(Preconditions.java:172)
at org.apache.hadoop.net.SocketInputWrapper.getReadableByteChannel(SocketInputWrapper.java:83)
at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.RemoteBlockReader2.newBlockReader(RemoteBlockReader2.java:432)
at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.BlockReaderFactory.newBlockReader(BlockReaderFactory.java:82)
at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DFSInputStream.getBlockReader(DFSInputStream.java:832)
at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DFSInputStream.blockSeekTo(DFSInputStream.java:444)

While accessing the HDFS  I keep getting the above mentioned error.
Setting the dfs.client.use.legacy.blockreader to true fixes the problem.
I would like to know what exactly is the problem? Is it a problem/bug in hadoop ?
Is there is JIRA ticket for this??
Cheers,
