We already run this and HDFS-1627, together with image compression for around 2 months on our large cluster. All seem to pretty stable and have improved NN availability/responsiveness a lot. > Improve checkpoint performance by avoiding unnecessary image downloads > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-1458 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1458 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Hairong Kuang > Assignee: Hairong Kuang > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > Attachments: checkpoint-checkfsimageissame.patch, > trunkNoDownloadImage.patch, trunkNoDownloadImage1.patch, > trunkNoDownloadImage2.patch, trunkNoDownloadImage3.patch > > > If secondary namenode could verify that the image it has on its disk is the > same as the one in the primary NameNode, it could skip downloading the image > from the primary NN, thus completely eliminating the image download overhead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
