Aaron T. Myers updated HDFS-1973:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: hdfs-1973.0.patch

Here's a preliminary patch (not intended for commit) to give people an idea how 
this will work.

The main things this is missing before it could reasonably be committed are:

# It currently doesn't handle clean-up of fail-over client resources at all. 
The way RPC resource cleanup currently works is by looking up the appropriate 
RPCEngine given a protocol class, and leaving it up to that class's 
InvocationHandler. This implicitly assumes that there is a one-to-one mapping 
from protocol class -> invocation handler, which is no longer true. It's not 
obvious to me at the moment what's the best way to deal with this.
# Currently only one of the {{ClientProtocol}} methods is annotated with the 
@Idempotent annotation.
# It currently doesn't handle concurrent connections at all.

> HA: HDFS clients must handle namenode failover and switch over to the new 
> active namenode.

> During failover, a client must detect the current active namenode failure and 
> switch over to the new active namenode. The switch over might make use of IP 
> failover or some thing more elaborate such as zookeeper to discover the new 
> active.
