Hari Mankude commented on HDFS-2769:
------------------------------------

I am not sure if this solution #2 is going to be acceptable even in v1. Shared 
storage (or connectivity to shared storage) becomes the single point of 
failure. Network connections are bound to be flaky. Edit log writes are 
synchronous and if write errors result in active NN degrading to standby mode, 
then there is a good chance that this might happen in a data center.

> HDFS-2430 introduced the concept of "required" edits/name dirs, which are not 
> treated as redundant when considering NN storage failure. When a shared edits 
> dir is used, this should automatically be marked as required.
