> In the existing implementation, the Namenode has a data structure called
> DatanodeDescriptor. It is used to serialize contents of the Datanode while
> writing it to the fsimage. The same serialization method is used to send a
> Datanode object to the Datanode and/or the Client. This introduces the
> shortcoming that one cannot introduce non-persistent fields in the
> DatanodeDescriptor.
> One solution is to separate out the following two functionality into two
> separate classes:
> 1. The fields from a Datanode that are part of the ClientProtocol and/or
> DatanodeProcotol.
> 2. The fields from a Datanode that are stored in the fsImage.
