[jira] Commented: (HDFS-1071) savenamespace should write the fsimage to all configured fs.name.dir in parallel

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1071?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12851469#action_12851469 ] 

Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-1071:
----------------------------------------

I'm looking forward to this fix, because it will make having a quorum for image files that much easier.

> If you have a large number of files in HDFS, the fsimage file is very big. When the namenode restarts, it writes a copy of the fsimage to all directories configured in fs.name.dir. This takes a long time, especially if there are many directories in fs.name.dir. Make the NN write the fsimage to all these directories in parallel.
