> To enable hot standby namenode, the standby node must have current
> information for - namenode state (image + edits) and block location
> information. This jira addresses keeping the namenode state current in the
> standby node. To do this, the proposed solution in this jira is to use a
> shared storage to store the namenode state.
> Note one could also build an alternative solution by augmenting the backup
> node. A seperate jira could explore this.
