########## hadoop-hdds/docs/content/feature/OM-HA.md: ########## @@ -125,7 +125,23 @@ ozone om [global options (optional)] --bootstrap --force Note that using the _force_ option during bootstrap could crash the OM process if it does not have updated configurations. +## Automatic Snapshot Installation for Stale Ozone Managers + +Sometimes an OM follower node may be offline or fall so far behind the leader OM's log that it cannot catch up by replaying individual log entries. The OM HA implementation includes an automatic snapshot installation and recovery process for such cases. + +How it works: + +1. Leader determines that the follower is too far behind. +2. Leader notifies the follower to catch up via snapshot. +3. The follower downloads and installs the latest snapshot from the leader. +4. After installing the snapshot, the follower OM resumes normal operation and log replication from the new state. + +This logic is implemented in the [`OzoneManagerStateMachine.notifyInstallSnapshotFromLeader()` method](https://github.com/apache/ozone/blob/931bc2d8a9e8e8595bb49034c03c14e2b15be865/hadoop-ozone/ozone-manager/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/ozone/om/ratis/OzoneManagerStateMachine.java#L521-L541). + +In most scenarios, stale OMs will recover automatically, even if they have missed a large number of operations. Manual intervention (such as running `ozone om --bootstrap`) is only required when adding a new OM node to the cluster or when explicitly requested by support instructions. Review Comment: This doesn't include OM snapshot and snapdiff DB, which might need to be handled by tarring the whole OM DB instead of using Rsync (to preserve with hard links) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
