Method Detail

setState

void setState(HAState state)

Set the state of the context to given state

getState

HAState getState()

Get the state from the context

startActiveServices

                  throws java.io.IOException

Start the services required in active state

Throws:

java.io.IOException

stopActiveServices

void stopActiveServices()
                 throws java.io.IOException

Stop the services when exiting active state

startStandbyServices

void startStandbyServices()
                   throws java.io.IOException

prepareToStopStandbyServices

void prepareToStopStandbyServices()
                           throws org.apache.hadoop.ha.ServiceFailedException

Prepare to exit the standby state

Throws:

org.apache.hadoop.ha.ServiceFailedException

stopStandbyServices

void stopStandbyServices()
                  throws java.io.IOException

Stop the services when exiting standby state

Throws:

java.io.IOException

writeLock

void writeLock()

Take a write-lock on the underlying namesystem so that no concurrent state transitions or edits can be made.

writeUnlock

void writeUnlock()

Unlock the lock taken by writeLock()

checkOperation

void checkOperation(NameNode.OperationCategory op)
             throws org.apache.hadoop.ipc.StandbyException

Verify that the given operation category is allowed in the current state. This is to allow NN implementations (eg BackupNode) to override it with node-specific handling. If the operation which is being checked will be taking the FSNS lock, it's advisable to check the operation category both immediately before and after taking the lock. This is because clients rely on the StandbyException thrown by this method in order to trigger client failover, and if a client first tries to contact the Standby NN, it could block for a long time if the Standby is holding the lock for a while, e.g. when performing a checkpoint. See HDFS-4591 for more details.

Throws:

org.apache.hadoop.ipc.StandbyException

allowStaleReads

boolean allowStaleReads()

Returns:

true if the node should allow stale reads (ie reads while the namespace is not up to date)
