Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-2185:
--------------------------------------
bq. I don't think there's a race condition here, since the NN itself always
starts in standby mode, and the minicluster startup waits until it is fully
active.
Ah, I thought that MiniDFSCluster might return from waitActive while still in
the INITIALIZING state. My mistake. I agree with you, then, that there's no
race condition.
Latest patch looks good to me. +1 pending Jenkins and the commit of the Common
patch.

> This jira is for a ZK-based FailoverController daemon. The FailoverController
> is a separate daemon from the NN that does the following:
> * Initiates leader election (via ZK) when necessary
> * Performs health monitoring (aka failure detection)
> * Performs fail-over (standby to active and active to standby transitions)
> * Heartbeats to ensure the liveness
> It should have the same/similar interface as the Linux HA RM to aid
> pluggability.
