Chris Nauroth updated HDFS-8432:
--------------------------------
Attachment: HDFS-8432-branch-2.002.patch
[~arpitagarwal], thank you for your review!
We'll need a slightly different patch for branch-2, due to some changes in
{{FSEditLog}} method signatures that are only in trunk. Would you mind
reviewing this branch-2 patch too?
> Introduce a minimum compatible layout version to allow downgrade in more
> rolling upgrade use cases.

>
> Maintain the prior layout version during the upgrade window and reject
> attempts to use new features until after the upgrade has been finalized.
> This guarantees that the prior software version can read the fsimage and edit
> logs if the administrator decides to downgrade. This will make downgrade
> usable for the majority of NameNode layout version changes, which just
> involve introduction of new edit log operations.
