Wei-Chiu Chuang updated HDFS-12186:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
For a cluster of substantial size, INodeAttributeProvider initialization. may 
take a long time and it blocks NameNode startup. We saw a large cluster where 
part of file system ACLs is managed by Apache Sentry, and NameNode took a few 
minutes for the Sentry HDFS NameNode Plugin to initialize. I suppose the same 
issue can arise for Apache Ranger and other INodeAttributeProviders 
implementation.

It would be nice to add an extra row in NameNode Web UI startup progress, in 
addition to "Loading fsimage", "Loading edits", "Saving checkpoint" and "Safe 
mode", to give a better visibility what NameNode is doing.

In addition, there might also be a need to add a similar row into Web UI for 
loading NameNode plugins. So filing this jira to invite more discussion.
