Aaron T. Myers updated HDFS-2947:
---------------------------------
Attachment: HDFS-2947-HDFS-1623.patch
Here's a patch which addresses the issue. I manually verified that the NN no
longer prints this NPE during startup. I also ran TestHAStateTransitions to
make sure everything still works fine.
> HA: On startup NN throws an NPE in the metrics system

> HDFS-2510 added some HA-specific metrics which check the NN's HAState. The NN
> initializes its HAState *after* the metrics are initialized, and thus we
> might hit an NPE during NN startup. This seems to be innocuous in that the
> NN's metrics still function, but it's poor form to log an unnecessary NPE.
