stack commented on HBASE-12007:
-------------------------------

bq. The regions in the active master are already handled separately.

When you say the above, what does that mean? We have two mechanisms for 
distributing regions on a cluster?

In branch-1, master can carry regions?  DIdn't we disable that for branch-1?  
Or is it not possible to undo M being a RS?

bq. ...&& cluster.isActiveMaster(n)

We could assign to backup master?

Thanks

> We should enhance how StochasticBalancer picks up a random server so that it 
> can avoid putting user regions on master, because regions on master are 
> handled differently in a separate method.
