[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-1605) Automatic namenode restart when it encounters an error situation

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1605?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12519027 ] 

Koji Noguchi commented on HADOOP-1605:
--------------------------------------

Can we have this feature configurable like 

<property>
  <name>dfs.namenode.autorestart</name>
  <value>true</value>
  <description></description>
</property>

and exit the JVM if set to false?

> The namenode dies when it encounters an unexpected Runtime Exception. Instead, it can catch exceptions, clears up all its internal data structures and restarts. This was attempted in HADOOP-1486 earlier.
