dhruba borthakur commented on HDFS-3092: ---------------------------------------- we might continue to invest in making namenode transaction logs be stored in BK, just because BK is a general purpose logging service that non-hadoop software services could also use in the future. > Enable journal protocol based editlog streaming for standby namenode > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3092 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3092 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: ha, name-node > Affects Versions: 0.24.0, 0.23.3 > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > Assignee: Suresh Srinivas > Attachments: ComparisonofApproachesforHAJournals.pdf, JNStates.png, > MultipleSharedJournals.pdf, MultipleSharedJournals.pdf, > MultipleSharedJournals.pdf > > > Currently standby namenode relies on reading shared editlogs to stay current > with the active namenode, for namespace changes. BackupNode used streaming > edits from active namenode for doing the same. This jira is to explore using > journal protocol based editlog streams for the standby namenode. A daemon in > standby will get the editlogs from the active and write it to local edits. To > begin with, the existing standby mechanism of reading from a file, will > continue to be used, instead of from shared edits, from the local edits. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
