             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: name-node
    Affects Versions: 0.24.0

In NNStorage.java:
  There are many stream closures in finally block. 
  There is a chance that they can can mask the root exceptions.

So, better to follow the pattern like below:

  try{
     ............
     ............
     stream.close();
     stream =null;
   }
   finally{
     IOUtils.cleanup(LOG, stream);
   }
