Konstantin Shvachko updated HADOOP-1604:
----------------------------------------

    Issue Type: New Feature  (was: Bug)

I agree it would be useful to have -finalize option for the name-node startup.
This is a new feature. Not a bug. Do we have feature freeze in progress for 
0.14 already?

> admins should be able to finalize namenode upgrades without running the 
> cluster

> Currently a HDFS cluster must be running in order to finalize an upgrade, but 
> if you shut down without finalizing the new software won't start up. I 
> propose a command line option to the namenode that lets you finalize an 
> upgrade with the cluster down.
> {code}
> % bin/hadoop namenode -finalize
> {code}
