Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-1505:
-----------------------------------
I'm working on porting this over to the branch for HDFS-1073... quick question
for you guys:
In the HDFS-1073 design, the edits and the images are no longer coupled -- ie
there's no coordination between the state of the edits files and of the images.
Given this, I think the correct check will be to see if there are any IMAGE
directories at the end of saveNamespace, and not care about EDITS (we're also
decoupling failure state of the edit log from failure state of the image
saving). Does that seem to make sense to you? The tests pass for me on that
branch even with that change.
> saveNamespace appears to succeed even if all directories fail to save
