[jira] [Created] (HDFS-2913) HA: Need a way to shutdown the Name Node

HA: Need a way to shutdown the Name Node
----------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-2913
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2913
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: name-node
    Affects Versions: HA branch (HDFS-1623)
            Reporter: Bikas Saha
            Assignee: Bikas Saha


Ideally, NameNode.stop() needs to be called because it will change the HA state and shutdown all services. NameNode reference is not available anywhere. Hence it is not possible to shutdown the name node gracefully.

A possible solution could be to have a Service interface that gets passed down to components like FSNameSystem, via which they can inform the NameNode about irrecoverable errors. NameNode could then decide to shutdown.
