Robert Joseph Evans updated HDFS-2896:
--------------------------------------
Target Version/s: 2.0.0, 3.0.0 (was: 0.23.1)
> The 2NN incorrectly daemonizes
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-2896
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2896
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: name-node
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0, 0.24.0
> Reporter: Eli Collins
> Assignee: Eli Collins
>
> The SecondaryNameNode (and Checkpointer) confuse o.a.h.u.Daemon with a Unix
> daemon. Per below it intends to create a thread that never ends, but
> o.a.h.u.Daemon just marks a thread with Java's Thread#setDaemon which means
> Java will terminate the thread when there are no more non-daemon user threads
> running
> {code}
> // Create a never ending deamon
> Daemon checkpointThread = new Daemon(secondary);
> {code}
> Perhaps they thought they were using commons Daemon. We of course don't want
> the 2NN to exit unless it exits itself or is stopped explicitly. Currently it
> won't do this because the main thread is not marked as a daemon thread. In
> any case, let's make the 2NN consistent with the NN in this regard (exit when
> the RPC thread exits).
