Subbu M Iyer commented on HBASE-4213:
-------------------------------------


They both are checking different counts. One counts the number of
active RS at this moment (based on number of childrens of /hbase/rs)
and other counts the number of RS successfully processed the schema
change (based on number of childrens of /hbase/schema/<table name> ).

If number of RS who have processed the schema change is >= number of
active RS at this moment then master presumes that all RS have
acknowledged the schema change and hence goes ahead with delete
operation.
