> After HADOOP-9181 went in, the secondary namenode immediately shuts down
> after it is started. From the startup logs:
> {noformat}
> 2013-01-22 19:54:28,826 INFO namenode.SecondaryNameNode
> (SecondaryNameNode.java:initialize(299)) - Checkpoint Period :3600 secs (60
> min)
> 2013-01-22 19:54:28,826 INFO namenode.SecondaryNameNode
> (SecondaryNameNode.java:initialize(301)) - Log Size Trigger :40000 txns
> 2013-01-22 19:54:28,845 INFO namenode.SecondaryNameNode
> (StringUtils.java:run(616)) - SHUTDOWN_MSG:
> /************************************************************
> SHUTDOWN_MSG: Shutting down SecondaryNameNode at xx
> ************************************************************/
> {noformat}
> I looked into the issue, and it's shutting down because
> SecondaryNameNode.main starts a bunch of daemon threads then returns. With
> nothing but daemon threads remaining, the JVM sees no reason to keep going
> and proceeds to shutdown. Apparently we were implicitly relying on the fact
> that the HttpServer QueuedThreadPool threads were not daemon threads to keep
> the secondary namenode process up.
