how to add JournalNodes

I use QJM for HA in hadoop2.0,  now  there are three JournalNodes in HDFS
cluster, I want to add two new JournalNodes to HDFS cluster, how to do it?
Do I need to restart HDFS cluster?


Thanks,

LiuLei

You need to restart your NameNodes to get them to use the new QJM
5-host-set configs, and I think you can do that without downtime if
you're already in HA mode by restarting one NN at a time.

To add new JNs first though, you will currently have to rsync their
directory from a good JN to get them into the cluster (i.e. rsync the
data from a good one before you start the new JNs). They will not
auto-join otherwise.
