Charles Wimmer commented on HDFS-8241:
--------------------------------------
A fatal error would obviously be prefereable to a silent failure. It is also
no longer obvious when a filesystem requires finalization.
(I'll skip my rant about how HDFS-5138 was probably the cause for me losing
blocks on an upgrade from 2.2 to 2.4.1)
> Remove unused Namenode startup option "FINALIZE"
