    Description

      We saw the following error in JournalNodes a few times before.

      2016-09-22 12:44:24,505 WARN org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSImage: Caught exception after scanning through 0 ops from /data/1/dfs/current/ed
      its_inprogress_0000000000000661942 while determining its valid length. Position was 761856
      java.io.IOException: Can't scan a pre-transactional edit log.

      at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.qjournal.server.JournalNode.getOrCreateJournal(JournalNode.java:90)
      

      The edit file was corrupt, and one possible culprit of this error is a full disk. The JournalNode can't recovered and must be resync manually from other JournalNodes.
