Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-1989:
-----------------------------------

saveNamespace should only be happening while in safemode, and closing a file 
should not be allowed while in safemode. This may ahve been addressed by 
HDFS-988.

On the BN side, it shouldn't be taking a checkpoint while the edits application 
is in active mode -- it should be in "spool" mode where the edits aren't being 
applied.

> When checkpointing by backup node occurs parallely when a file is being 
> closed by a client then Exception occurs saying no journal streams.

> Backup namenode initiates the checkpointing process. 
> As a part of checkpointing based on the timestamp it tries to download the 
> FSImage or use the existing one.
> Then it tries to save the FSImage.
> During this time it tries to close the editLog streams.
> Parallely when a client tries to close a file just after the checkpointing 
> process closes the editLog Stream then we get an exception saying
> java.io.IOException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: !!! WARNING !!! File 
> system changes are not persistent. No journal streams.
> Here the saveNameSpace api closes all the editlog streams resulting in this 
> issue.
