> Currently, if the administrator mistakenly calls "-transitionToActive" on one NN while the other one is still active, all hell will break loose. We can add a simple check by having the NN make a getServiceState() RPC to its peer with a short (~1 second?) timeout. If the RPC succeeds and indicates the other node is active, it should refuse to enter active mode. If the RPC fails or indicates standby, it can proceed.
> This is just meant as a preventative safety check - we still expect users to use the "-failover" command which has other checks plus fencing built in.
