Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-12570:
---------------------------------------
I'd be in favor of backporting HBASE-10591 to 0.98. Might lead to surprises,
though.
[~apurtell], what do you think?
> Missing/invalid split policy class name brings down your HBase cluster

> Key: HBASE-12570
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12570
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: James Taylor
>
> See PHOENIX-1473. If a split policy class cannot be resolved, then your HBase
> cluster will be brought down as each region server that successively attempts
> to open the region will not find the class and will bring itself down.
> One idea to prevent this would be to fail the CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE
> admin call if the split policy class cannot be found.
