Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-3405:
-----------------------------------
Actually, spoke too soon on the test. Looking deeper, it's not a port in use
error. Do you mind taking a closer look? Locally, it's flaked with the
"Expected non-empty..." error a few times.
> Checkpointing should use HTTP POST or PUT instead of GET-GET to send merged
> fsimages

> the current scheme for a checkpointing daemon to upload a merged fsimage
> file to an NN is to issue an HTTP get request to tell the target NN to issue
> another GET request back to the checkpointing daemon to retrieve the merged
> fsimage file. There's no fundamental reason the checkpointing daemon can't
> just use an HTTP POST or PUT to send back the merged fsimage file, rather
> than the double-GET scheme.
