Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-2291:
--------------------------------------
bq. Yes and no... I sort of see your point. But, people have also discussed an
external tool which would perform checkpoints for many clusters and then upload
them
I'm still a little leery of this behavior, but I don't feel strongly about it,
so let's just roll with it.
I should have said this earlier, but I'd also recommend changing
"prepareEnterState" to "prepareToEnterState", and likewise for exit.
Otherwise the patch looks good to me. +1 once that's addressed.

> We obviously need to create checkpoints when HA is enabled. One thought is to
> use a third, dedicated checkpointing node in addition to the active and
> standby nodes. Another option would be to make the standby capable of also
> performing the function of checkpointing.
