Eli Collins commented on HDFS-3625: ----------------------------------- Looks like the BN uses the edits log tailer now, it just needs to have it initialized first, eg transition from standby to active. > FSN#startActiveServices assumes standby services started > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3625 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3625 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: ha > Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Eli Collins > > TestBackupNode#testCheckpointNode fails because the following code in > FSN#startActiveServices NPEs (resulting in a System.exit) because > editLogTailer is set when starting standby services and if ha is not enabled > we go directly to the active state.
