Vincent Sheffer updated HDFS-5677:
----------------------------------

    Release Note: Issue a warning message in the logs if a namenode does not 
resolve properly on startup.
          Status: Patch Available  (was: In Progress)

Added a simple check to determine if a namenode hostname has been successfully 
resolved at startup and, if not, append a WARNing message in the log.

> If a node is declared in the *dfs.ha.namenodes.myCluster* but is _not_ later 
> defined in subsequent *dfs.namenode.servicerpc-address.myCluster.nodename* or 
> *dfs.namenode.rpc-address.myCluster.XXX* properties no error or warning 
> message is provided to indicate that.
> The only indication of a problem is a log message like the following:
> {code}
> WARN org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.datanode.DataNode: Problem connecting to 
> server: myCluster:8020
> {code}
> Another way to look at this is that no error or warning is provided when a 
> servicerpc-address/rpc-address property is defined for a node without a 
> corresponding node declared in *dfs.ha.namenodes.myCluster*.
> This arose when I had a typo in the *dfs.ha.namenodes.myCluster* property for 
> one of my node names.  It would be very helpful to have at least a warning 
> message on startup if there is a configuration problem like this.
