Pro haadmin: * The underlying HDFS instance may not be configured for automatic failover. * The haadmin command doesn't require knowing where the NameNode processes are running within the cluster. * The haadmin tool is a publicly exposed way of saying "do a failover", whereas finding the NameNode to kill will be a heuristic. Pro killing namenode: * If you specifically need to test what happens when it's the automatic failover process kicking in Note that I don't think the pro-killing pro is that strong of a pro. The haadmin command still needs to transition the active to standby and then the standby to active, so systems above HDFS are going to already encounter e.g. gaps in there being an active namenode. - Sean ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
