>          Issue Type: Bug

> *Background:*
> I installed the HDFS service with HA enabled, using two NameNodes—one active 
> and one standby. All HDFS components currently share the same set of 
> configuration files.
> I now want to add a third NameNode as an Observer NameNode. However, I've run 
> into a limitation:
>  * If I set dfs.namenode.observer.enabled=true to designate the third 
> NameNode as an observer, all the NameNodes start as observers, since they 
> share the same configuration.
>  * Alternatively, I can start the third NameNode as an observer by passing 
> the -observer flag at startup. But since I'm using a cluster installation 
> tool, this approach requires me to separately track which NameNode is the 
> observer and apply that information during startup—which adds unwanted 
> complexity.
>  
>  
> *Proposed Change:*
> Similar to other existing NameNode-scoped configurations, I propose adding a 
> NameNode-scoped configuration:
> dfs.namenode.observer.enabled.<nameserviceId>.<namenodeId>
> This configuration would be set only in the configuration of the specific 
> NameNode we want to designate as the observer.
> As a result, only that NameNode would start as an Observer NameNode, leaving 
> the other NameNodes unaffected.
