Hi all,

I’m in the middle of a (slow) upgrade process for the Hadoop cluster.  
Currently, we are running CDH 5.0.2, and would like to upgrade to CDH 5.3.  
There are several steps to this process, the first of which is upgrading our OS 
to Ubuntu Trusty.

Along the way, I’m replacing our current NameNodes with different hardware.  I 
am ready to do this now.  I don’t see much opportunity to schedule this over 
the next couple of weeks, due to All-Hands travel, so I’d like to schedule this 
for tomorrow morning (Friday January 16th).

I expect this to be relatively simple downtime, that will only take a few 
minutes.  Just in case, I’d like to reserve 2 hours of time.

So, unless there are serious objections, plan for Hadoop to be offline from

  2015-01-16 15:45 - 17:45 UTC

Also, please don’t start jobs before this time slot that you think will take a 
long time.  If there are running jobs, I either can’t shut down the cluster, or 
I will have to kill the jobs.  If I see running jobs, I’ll try to reach out to 
you before I kill anything.

If anyone is interested in a rough migration plan, it is here:
