> On a namenode restart, I sometimes get the following exception. The problem
> is that the RPC server is initialized before the namenode data structures are
> initialized. This means that an RPC starts getting processed by the namenode
> before its data structures are consistent. The fix is to first initialize the
> namesystem and then start the RPC server.
