Jitendra Nath Pandey updated HDFS-1975:
---------------------------------------
Attachment: HDFS-1975-HA.patch
This is a very early version of the patch.
In this patch I am letting the datanode call to block if generation stamp is
not up to date. I will upload a patch very soon which won't block the call and
instead queue the message. The patch is not review ready yet, but indicates the
approach being taken.
> HA: Support for sharing the namenode state from active to standby.

> To enable hot standby namenode, the standby node must have current
> information for - namenode state (image + edits) and block location
> information. This jira addresses keeping the namenode state current in the
> standby node. To do this, the proposed solution in this jira is to use a
> shared storage to store the namenode state.
> Note one could also build an alternative solution by augmenting the backup
> node. A seperate jira could explore this.
