So we had an NFS mount and a local disk for dfs.name.dir. Our NFS mount lost
connection a week ago. So the question is that if we now remount it and it has
data from back then, will the namenode detect the staleness and bring it in
sync with the other partition? Or should we manually delete the files from that
partition and and remount (by the time we copy and remount it might again be
stale for quite a few edits)?
