While master restarts and if the META region's state is OPENING then master cannot assign META until timeout monitor deducts ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-4203 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4203 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan Priority: Minor 1. Start Master and 2 RS. 2. If any exception happens while opening the META region the state in znode will be OPENING. 3. If at this point the master restarts then the master will start processing the regions in RIT. 4. If the znode is found to be in OPENING then master waits for timeout monitor to deduct and then call opening. 5. If default timeout monitor is configured then it may take long time to open the META region. Soln: ==== Better not to wait for the Timeout monitor period to open catalog tables on Master restart -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
