Arpit Gupta commented on HDFS-2177:
-----------------------------------
I believe the reason the restart of the namenode is necessary to see the issue
as it re reads the image file back in memory thus showing the users an empty
namespace. However restart does not play any role in making the edits log empty.
> Restarting the namenode when the secondary namenode is checkpointing seems to
> remove everything from /
