> If it is the normal flow of the checkpoint,the value of latestNameCheckpointTime  is equal to the value of latestEditsCheckpointTime,and it will exec “else”.
> The problem is that,latestNameCheckpointTime > latestEditsCheckpointTime:
> SecondNameNode starts checkpoint,
> ...
> NameNode:rollFSImage,NameNode shutdown after write latestNameCheckpointTime and before write latestEditsCheckpointTime.
> Start NameNode:because latestNameCheckpointTime > latestEditsCheckpointTime,so the value of needToSave is true, and it will not update “rootDir”'s nsCount that is the cluster's file number(update exec at loadFSEdits “FSNamesystem.getFSNamesystem().dir.updateCountForINodeWithQuota()”),and then “saveNamespace” will write file number to fsimage whit default value “1”。
> The next time,loadFSImage will fail.
> Maybe,it will work:
> {code}
> boolean loadFSImage(MetaRecoveryContext recovery) throws IOException {
> ...
> latestNameSD.read();
>     needToSave |= loadFSImage(getImageFile(latestNameSD, NameNodeFile.IMAGE));
>     LOG.info("Image file of size " + imageSize + " loaded in " 
>         + (FSNamesystem.now() - startTime)/1000 + " seconds.");
>     
>     // Load latest edits
>     if (latestNameCheckpointTime > latestEditsCheckpointTime){
>       // the image is already current, discard edits
>       needToSave |= true;
>       FSNamesystem.getFSNamesystem().dir.updateCountForINodeWithQuota();
>     }
>     else // latestNameCheckpointTime == latestEditsCheckpointTime
>       needToSave |= (loadFSEdits(latestEditsSD, recovery) > 0);
>     
>     return needToSave;
>   }
> {code}
