---------------------------------
The test failures and release audit warning are again unrelated to this fix.
> cTime is 0 in VERSION file for newly formatted NameNode.

> Key: HDFS-8164
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8164
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: namenode
> Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha
> Reporter: Chris Nauroth
> Assignee: Xiao Chen
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: HDFS-8164.001.patch, HDFS-8164.002.patch

>
> After formatting a NameNode and inspecting its VERSION file, the cTime
> property shows 0. The value does get updated to current time during an
> upgrade, but I believe this is intended to be the creation time of the
> cluster, and therefore the initial value of 0 before an upgrade can cause
> confusion.
