dhruba borthakur commented on HDFS-983: --------------------------------------- Hi todd, thanks for the pointer to HADOOP-6522. Can you hazard a guess why encoding issue could cause the failures to generate Namenode checkpoints? > NameNode transaction log corruption with bad filename > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-983 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-983 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 0.20.1 > Reporter: dhruba borthakur > Assignee: dhruba borthakur > > The SecondaryNamenode is unable to create checkpoints. The stack trace is > attached. This is the second time we have seen this issue. Both these > occurances happened with unprintable characters in the filename.
