Konstantin Shvachko commented on HDFS-1839:
-------------------------------------------
This is a low priority for both 0.22 and 0.23 as a Checkpointer should be used
instead of SNN. But if we need to patch 0.20, then we will have to go all the
way from trunk.
> SecondaryNameNode should not discard "previous.checkpoint"

> While creating a checkpoint SNN calls {{moveLastCheckpoint()}} twice. As a
> result directory "previous.checkpoint" is getting removed.
> "previous.checkpoint" directory holds the checkpoint that was created before
> the current one. It is useful for manual recovery, but nothing else.
