> The adminstrator puts the namenode is safemode and then issues the
> savenamespace command. This can corrupt the edits log. The problem is that
> when the NN enters safemode, there could still be pending logSycs occuring
> from other threads. Now, the saveNamespace command, when executed, would save
> a edits log with partial writes. I have seen this happen on 0.20.
