The reason is any function relying on `getLoadBalancedQuorumDisks`
cannot possibly have an idempotent behavior.
The problem comes from given a set of N disks returning just a
shuffled N/2 disks. In case of a scenario where we have N/2
number of failed disks, the returned value of `getLoadBalancedQuorumDisks`
is not equal to the same failed disks so essentially calls using such
disks might succeed or fail randomly at different intervals in time.
This proposal change is we move to `getLoadBalancedDisks()`
and use the shuffled N disks as a whole. Since most of the time we might
hit a good disk since we are not reducing our solution space. This
also provides consistent behavior for all the functions which rely
on shuffled disks.
Fixes#2242
Each metadata ops have a list of errors which can be
ignored, this is essentially needed when
- disks are not found
- disks are found but cannot be accessed (permission denied)
- disks are there but fresh disks were added
This is needed since we don't have healing code in place where
it would have healed the fresh disks added.
Fixes#2072
Deletion of tmp files where xl metadata was saved before the commit
operation doesn't change the error returned to the caller. So, it is to
be ignored.
AppendFile ensures that it appends the entire buffer. Returns
an error otherwise, this patch removes the necessity for the
caller to look for 'n' return on short writes.
Ref #1893
* Remove parts that are missing in CompleteMultipartUpload
* Moved isUploadIDExists under proper namespace locks
