-----------------------------------
+1 latest patch lgtm. Mind filing another jira for the setFields
refactoring and using Precconditions?
> Running rollback on new-version namenode destroys namespace

> Key: HDFS-1969
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1969
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: name-node
> Affects Versions: 0.22.0
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Assignee: Todd Lipcon
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.22.0

> The following sequence leaves the namespace in an inconsistent/broken state:
> - format NN using 0.20 (or any prior release, probably)
> - run hdfs namenode -upgrade on 0.22. ^C the NN once it comes up.
> - run hdfs namenode -rollback on 0.22 (this should fail but doesn't!)
> This leaves the name directory in a state such that the version file claims
> it's an 0.20 namespace, but the fsimage is in 0.22 format. It then crashes
> when trying to start up.
