--------------------------------
Hi [~tlipcon], [~umamaheswararao],
I'm also thinking, configuration approach is simple. Hope this configuration
would be configured in ZKFC process, isn't it?. Kindly let me know your
suggestions and I'd like to take this ahead. Thanks!
> QJM: don't require a fencer to be configured if shared storage has built-in
> single-writer semantics

> Key: HDFS-3862
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3862
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: ha
> Affects Versions: QuorumJournalManager (HDFS-3077)
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
>
> Currently, NN HA requires that the administrator configure a fencing method
> to ensure that only a single NameNode may write to the shared storage at a
> time. Some shared edits storage implementations (like QJM) inherently enforce
> single-writer semantics at the storage level, and thus the user should not be
> forced to specify one.
> We should extend the JournalManager interface so that the HA code can operate
> without a configured fencer if the JM has such built-in fencing.
