When the namenode restarts, it writes a copy of the fsimage to all directories configured in fs.name.dir. This takes a long time, especially if there are many directories in fs.name.dir. Make the NN write the fsimage to all these directories in parallel. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
