Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-955:
--------------------------------------

# FSImage.java
#* saveNameSpace() - in method comments, instead of "descrepancy between 
directory states", some thing like "in order help recovery in case failure 
during saveNamespace"
#* typo onle
#* loadFSImage() - why do we need check for directory type, while comparing 
latest checkpoint times?
#* loadFSImage() - instead of "after saving some of the images", to "after 
saving images in some of the storage directories" to avoid interpretation that 
partial image is saved.
#* saveCurrent(), moveCurrent(), moveLastCheckpoint() could all be static. 
Better still, they should all be methods in StorageDirectory.
# Storage.java
#* if (!hasCheckpointTmp) will always be true.
#* This might be a good time to document all the the get***Dir() methods
#* analyzestorage() - optional - can you add IOException after throws to fix 
javadoc warning
# TestSaveNamespace - should the switch cases for MOVE_CURRENT and 
MOVE_LAST_CHECKPOINT be switched?
# TestSaveNamespace - we should add other tests where save image could fail for 
first dir also. Also adding failing at different iterations of 
moveLastCheckPoint() and moveCurrent()?
