It would be good to fix it. You can simply create a jira describing the issue and we can discuss there how to fix it. If you have a patch - even better. Once fixed in trunk it can be ported to other branches, including 0.22 or HDFS-1073-branch if desired.

I don't think anyone uses it, so it's not surprising that there are a lot of broken parts. If you're interested in contributing in this area, I would encourage you to look at the HDFS-1073 branch. The BN and CheckpointNode will be undergoing various surgery during the course of this project, so it's a good opportunity to fix it up, add test coverage, etc. -Todd On Wed, May 25, 2011 at 1:08 AM, Sreehari G <sreehar...@huawei.com> wrote: > Hi all , > > In HDFS-903 - ( md5 verification of fsimage ) , with this change , > Backupnode is downloading the image & edit files from namenode everytime > since the difference in checkpoint time is always maintined b/w Namenode and > Backupnode .
