          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: dfs

I would like to switch on the debug log level of the namenode without 
restarting it. This is needed to analyze a production system.

Can somebody please advice on how to set the loglevel dyncamically on a running 
namenode? I was thinking of enhancing dfsadmin to make an RPC to the namenode 
to set a specified logging level. But the apache common logging APi does not 
export an API to change logging levels.
