Myers > Assignee: Matt Foley > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.22.0, 0.23.0 > > Attachments: hdfs-1505-1-test.txt, hdfs-1921.txt, hdfs1921_v23.patch, > hdfs1921_v23.patch > > > I discovered this in the course of trying to implement a fix for HDFS-1505. > Per the comment for {{FSImage.saveNamespace(...)}}, the algorithm for save > namespace proceeds in the following order: > # rename current to lastcheckpoint.tmp for all of them, > # save image and recreate edits for all of them, > # rename lastcheckpoint.tmp to previous.checkpoint. > The problem is that step 3 occurs regardless of whether or not an error > occurs for all storage directories in step 2. Upon restart, the NN will see > non-existent or corrupt {{current}} directories, and no > {{lastcheckpoint.tmp}} directories, and so will conclude that the storage > directories are not formatted. > This issue appears to be present on both 0.22 and 0.23. This should arguably > be a 0.22/0.23 blocker. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
