Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-2185:
-----------------------------------
bq. I am surprised that only an inElection state suffices instead of an
inElectionActive and inElectionStandby. Arent there actions that need to be
performed differently when the FC is active or standby?
It's somewhat surprising, but it seems to work fine this way. Do you see any
issues?
bq. There is no state transition dependent on the result of
transitionToActive(). If transitionToActive on NN fails then FC should
quitElection IMO. Currently, it quits election only on HM events. Same for
transitionToStandby on NN. If that fails then should we not do something?
The new rev of the document adds more explanation of this.
bq. Which state is performing fencing? The state machine does not show fencing?
Is it happening in the the HAService?
It's a callback from the elector. New rev of the document shows the callback.

> 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.
