Eli Collins commented on HDFS-2173:
-----------------------------------
Should this be a separate issue? It's not related to 1073 right?
> saveNamespace should not throw IOE when only one storage directory fails to
> write VERSION file

> Key: HDFS-2173
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2173
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: Edit log branch (HDFS-1073), 0.23.0
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Fix For: 0.23.0
>
>
> This JIRA tracks a TODO in TestSaveNamespace. Currently, if, while writing
> the VERSION files in the storage directories, one of the directories fails,
> the entire operation throws IOE. This is unnecessary -- instead, just that
> directory should be marked as failed.
> This is targeted to be fixed _after_ HDFS-1073 is merged to trunk, since it
> does not ever dataloss, and would rarely occur in practice (the dir would
> have to fail between writing the fsimage file and writing VERSION)
