>
> This happened in our cluster,
> >> Standby NN was keep doing checkpoint every one hour and uploading to
> >> Active NN was continuously failing due to some kerberos issue and nobody
> >> noticed this, since Active was servicing properly.
> >> Active NN was up for long time with fsimage having very least transaction.
> >> Standby NN has saved the checkpoint in its name dir and purged the txns >
> >> 1000000 from shared storage ( includes edits which are not present in
> >> Active NN's fsimage)
> >> After some time Active NN is restarted and StandBy NN switched to Active.
> Now current Standby not able to load any edits from shared storage, as
> expected edits are not present in shared storage. Its keep running idle.
> So {{editLog.purgeLogsOlderThan(purgeLogsFrom);}} always should be called
> from Active NameNode.
