Attachment: hdfs-1801.txt
Attached patch passes most of the existing tests.
The BackupNode is still in a broken state on the branch, but will be cleaned up
later.
> Remove use of timestamps to identify checkpoints and logs

> Key: HDFS-1801
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1801
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: name-node
> Affects Versions: Edit log branch (HDFS-1073)
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Assignee: Todd Lipcon
> Fix For: Edit log branch (HDFS-1073)

> Attachments: hdfs-1801.txt

>
> Currently, the NameNode validates checkpoint uploads by using timestamps
> associated with checkpoints and edit logs. However, now that we have
> transaction IDs that uniquely identify each point in time in the history of a
> namespace, it is more robust to simply use transaction IDs to identify images
> and edits.
> This JIRA is to remove the use of editsTime and checkpointTime and replace it
> with:
> * {{lastCheckpointTxId}} - the highest transaction ID reflected in the most
> recently saved fsimage file
> * {{lastLogRollTxId}} - the highest transaction ID in {{edits}} when
> {{rollFsImage}} was called by the checkpointing node.
