Suresh Srinivas commented on HADOOP-7455:
-----------------------------------------
I am not sure why you needed to introduce Neutral state. When namenodes cannot
talk to ZK, it continues to remain in the same state. If a namenode that was
active, say NN1 loses connection to ZK and the other NN, say NN2, takes over as
active, it performs fencing to keep the NN1 from accessing shared resources.
