Thanks a lot for your reply, Daniel, very helpful.

About (1) : I will consider this way, thanks. Also beside multiple clusters, are there any other options to do so? Thanks.

HDFS does not support two active NNs in a single cluster. Each DN belongs to a single NN, so a federated cluster is really multiple clusters that are stitched together at the NNs.

About (2), if I understand correctly, HDFS used the quorum journal manager(QJM) for HA, and the client still only communicates with the active namenode, not both node, am I understanding right?

I might be confusing HDFS with YARN, but I thought the way the client found the active NN was by just trying them all until one responds.
