GANG LIAO commented on HDFS-15087:
----------------------------------

I think this is an interesting idea. In your introduction, the 5th step updates 
the mount table on Routers after the previous steps complete.

I have a few questions:
 # Are you directly updating the status of Zookeeper (state store)? Or update 
the cached mount table of each router? Or both?
 # Is this update synchronized? In other words, the state store and all routers 
must be updated with the latest mount table entries in order to release the 
lock, right?

> The Xiaomi storage team has developed a new feature called HFR(HDFS 
> Federation Rename) that enables us to do balance/rename across federation 
> namespaces. The idea is to first move the meta to the dst NameNode and then 
> link all the replicas. It has been working in our largest production cluster 
> for 2 months. We use it to balance the namespaces. It turns out HFR is fast 
> and flexible. The detail could be found in the design doc. 
> Looking forward to a lively discussion.
