> One of the failure patterns I have seen is, in some rare circumstances, due 
> to some inconsistency the secondary or standby fails to consume editlog. The 
> only solution when this happens is to save the namespace at the current 
> active namenode. But sometimes when this happens, unsuspecting admin might 
> end up restarting the namenode, requiring more complicated solution to the 
> problem (such as ignore editlog record that cannot be consumed etc.).
> How about adding the following functionality:
> When checkpointer (standby or secondary) fails to consume editlog, based on a 
> configurable flag (on/off) to let the active namenode know about this 
> failure. Active namenode can enters safemode and saves namespace. When  in 
> this type of safemode, namenode UI also shows information about checkpoint 
> failure and that it is saving namespace. Once the namespace is saved, 
> namenode can come out of safemode.
> This means service unavailability (even in HA cluster). But it might be worth 
> it to avoid long startup times or need for other manual fixes. Thoughts?
