[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-13515) Redundant transitionToActive call can cause a NameNode to crash

Harsh J created HADOOP-13515:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Redundant transitionToActive call can cause a NameNode to crash
                 Key: HADOOP-13515
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13515
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ha
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
            Reporter: Harsh J
            Priority: Minor


The situation in parts is similar to HADOOP-8217, but the cause is different and so is the result.

Consider this situation:

- At the beginning NN1 is Active, NN2 is Standby
- ZKFC1 faces a ZK disconnect (not a session timeout, just a socket disconnect) and thereby reconnects

{code}
2016-08-11 07:00:46,068 INFO org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn: Client session timed out, have not heard from server in 4000ms for sessionid 0x4566f0c97500bd9, closing socket connection and attempting reconnect
2016-08-11 07:00:46,169 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: Session disconnected. Entering neutral mode...
…
2016-08-11 07:00:46,610 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: Session connected.
{code}

- The reconnection on the ZKFC1 triggers the elector code, and the elector re-run finds that NN1 should be the new active (a redundant decision cause NN1 is already active)

{code}
2016-08-11 07:00:46,615 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: Checking for any old active which needs to be fenced...
2016-08-11 07:00:46,630 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: Old node exists: …
2016-08-11 07:00:46,630 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: But old node has our own data, so don't need to fence it.
{code}

- The ZKFC1 sets the new ZK data, and fires a NN1 RPC call of transitionToActive

{code}
2016-08-11 07:00:46,630 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: Writing znode /hadoop-ha/nameservice1/ActiveBreadCrumb to indicate that the local node is the most recent active...

{code}

- At the same time as the transitionToActive call is in progress at NN1, but not complete yet, the ZK session of ZKFC1 is timed out by ZK Quorum, and a watch notification is sent to ZKFC2

{code}
2016-08-11 07:01:00,003 DEBUG org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn: Got notification sessionid:0x4566f0c97500bde
2016-08-11 07:01:00,004 DEBUG org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn: Got WatchedEvent state:SyncConnected type:NodeDeleted path:/hadoop-ha/nameservice1/ActiveStandbyElectorLock for sessionid 0x4566f0c97500bde
{code}

- ZKFC2 responds by marking NN2 as standby, which succeeds (NN hasn't handled transitionToActive call yet due to busy status, but has handled transitionToStandby before it)

{code}
2016-08-11 07:01:00,013 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ActiveStandbyElector: Checking for any old active which needs to be fenced...
2016-08-11 07:01:00,018 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ha.ZKFailoverController: Should fence: NameNode at nn01/10.10.10.10:8022

2016-08-11 07:01:03,880 DEBUG org.apache.hadoop.ipc.ProtobufRpcEngine: Call: transitionToStandby took 3860ms
{code}

- ZKFC2 then marks NN2 as active, and NN2 begins its transition (is in midst of it, not done yet at this point)

{code}

- At the same time in parallel NN1 processes the transitionToActive requests finally, and becomes active

- NN2's active transition fails as a result of this parallel active transition on NN1 which has completed right before it tries to take over

(Reflects as a failure on the ZKFC2 too):

{code}

We should perhaps avoid sending an active RPC if the NN is already active, by checking the service status before firing the transition RPC inside ZKFailoverController.
