zhangduo commented on HBASE-12588: ---------------------------------- [~stack] Maybe we need to call mutateRowsWithLocks instead of batchMutate in HBaseFsck#rebuildMeta? For batchMutate, it is usually called from client through rpc. And a client do not know if a batchMutate operation is only applied to one HRegion. And even if the client know, we can not make it always work because regionserver may crash before sending a OperationStatus back to client(common issues for a system with rpc), right? I think RowProcessorEndpoint and MultiRowMutationEndpoint are designed for this purpose. And maybe we need to search the code like what [~jeffreyz] had done to make sure we do not use batchMutate in the wrong way? Either change it to mutateRowsWithLocks or check the OperationStatus returned.
