> HbaseRPC, which (to my understanding) is used whenever there is a need to
> connect to a server, enters an infinite loop to continually retry the
> connection until it succeeds. This makes sense for server-to-server
> interaction, but it doesn't necessarily make sense for all client-to-server
> interaction.
> The problem I first observed was in doing fast restarts of HBase. When I
> attempted to reload the UI after a restart, it would infinitely try to
> re-contact the cached server location from before the restart. The correct
> behavior would be to break out of the loop as soon as possible in situations
> like the one above. I think that throwing a RetriesExhaustedException would
> be the best way to do this, although if anyone has any suggestions please let
> me know.
