Vinay commented on HDFS-3561:
-----------------------------

That sounds good. But as of now, in ZKFC, tryGracefulFence() is called by 
creating the new instance of FC itself. That means setting in Constructor or 
inside tryGracefulFence() both are same.
If we create the copy of conf only for tryGracefulFence() in constructor, FC 
will hold the copied conf in memory for the local target also, where we never 
use tryGracefulFence(). i.e. we will hold the duplicate conf instance which is 
not necessary.

Anything I am missing..?

> Scenario:
> Active NN on machine1
> Standby NN on machine2
> Machine1 is isolated from the network (machine1 network cable unplugged)
> After zk session timeout ZKFC at machine2 side gets notification that NN1 is 
> not there.
> ZKFC tries to failover NN2 as active.
> As part of this during fencing it tries to connect to machine1 and kill NN1. 
> (sshfence technique configured)
> This connection retry happens for 45 times( as it takes  
> ipc.client.connect.max.socket.retries)
> Also after that standby NN is not able to take over as active (because of 
> fencing failure).
> Suggestion: If ZKFC is not able to reach other NN for specified time/no of 
> retries it can consider that NN as dead and instruct the other NN to take 
> over as active as there is no chance of the other NN (NN1) retaining its 
> state as active after zk session timeout when its isolated from network
