Backupnode downloading image/edits from Namenode at every checkpoint .. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-2007 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2007 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: name-node Reporter: Hari Priority: Minor After the fix for HDFS-903 ( md5 verification of fsimage ) , Backupnode is downloading the image & edit files from namenode everytime since the difference in checkpoint time is always maintined b/w Namenode and Backupnode . This happens since Namenode is resetting its checkpoint time after every checkpoint since we are ignoring renewCheckpointTime and passing true explicitly to rollFsimage during endcheckpoint , while Backupnode is setting its checkpointtime to whatever it got from the namenode during startcheckpoint() Thus , checkpointtimes will be different during the next checkpoint and ll cause the image to be downloaded again .. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
