Hari Sekhon created HDFS-8277:
---------------------------------
Summary: Safemode enter fails when Standby NameNode is down
Key: HDFS-8277
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8277
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: ha, HDFS, namenode
Affects Versions: 2.6.0
Environment: HDP 2.2.0
Reporter: Hari Sekhon
HDFS fails to enter safemode when the Standby NameNode is down (eg. due to
AMBARI-10536).
{code}hdfs dfsadmin -safemode enter
safemode: Call From nn2/x.x.x.x to nn1:8020 failed on connection exception:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused; For more details see:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ConnectionRefused{code}
This appears to be a bug in that it's not trying both NameNodes like the
standard hdfs client code does, and is instead stopping after getting a
connection refused from nn1 which is down. I verified normal hadoop fs writes
and reads via cli did work at this time, using nn2. I happened to run this
command as the hdfs user on nn2 which was the surviving Active NameNode.
After I re-bootstrapped the Standby NN to fix it the command worked as expected
again.
