Brandon Li commented on HADOOP-4885:
------------------------------------

The format-addStorageDir solution make the failed directory "active" 
immediately even it's not a real active state. The state is visible from the nn 
UI and JMX. If the checkpoint fails, the fake "Active" state can be misleading.

The copy-over solution may do some extra work but it sets the recovered storage 
directories in the real active state. 


I agree those 3 JIRA issues you mentioned should be back ported too to branch 
1.02 (the backport patch here is for branch-1 not 1.02). 

It's a good point about the network mount problem. :-)  
It's also a problem with original patch: the "format-addStorageDir" creates the 
storage directory if it doesn't exist. However, if this storage directory is a 
mount point, it shouldn't be created automatically. HDFS-3095 is filed for this 
issue.
