    Description

      When trying to access hdfs via webhdfs, and when datanode is dead, user will see an exception below without any clue that it's caused by dead datanode:

      $ curl -i -X PUT ".../webhdfs/v1/t1?op=CREATE&user.name=<userName>&overwrite=false"

      ...
      {"RemoteException":{"exception":"IllegalArgumentException","javaClassName":"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException","message":"n must be positive"}}

      Need to fix the report to give user hint about dead datanode.
