Good point, I missed that. It doesn't work for me since I'm running both the NN
and SBN on the same host, so the 2nd fails to start because the pid file
already exists (other nn already claimed the file). The log dirs would collide
as well. In any case, I don't think we need to support the NN and SBN on the
same host in the start scripts, developers can workaround this by changing the
HADOOP_CONF_DIR and running start-dfs.sh again or start just the NN manually as
I've been doing with a separate conf dir.
Add support for the standby in the bin scripts

Key: HDFS-2732
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2732
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: ha
Affects Versions: HA branch (HDFS-1623)
Reporter: Eli Collins
Assignee: Eli Collins
We need to update the bin scripts to support SBNs. Two ideas:
Modify start-dfs.sh to start another copy of the NN if HA is configured. We
could introduce a file similar to masters (2NN hosts) called standbys which
lists the SBN hosts, and start-dfs.sh would automatically make the NN it
starts active (and leave the NNs listed in standby as is).
Or simpler, we could just provide a start-namenode.sh script that a user can
run to start the SBN on another host themselves. The user would manually tell
the other NN to be active via HAAdmin (or start-dfs.sh could do that
automatically, ie assume the NN it starts should be the primary).
