stack commented on HBASE-12978:
-------------------------------
The file just previous to this one -- the result of a compaction on meta --
seems fine. Looking at its indices, I see stuff like this:
key=IntegrationTestBigLinkedList,C//LATEST_TIMESTAMP/Maximum
offset=166171, dataSize=8247
... so this looks like our index entry 'tightener', the code that shrinks the
keys so take up less space in index. The problematic one is this:
key=IntegrationTestBigLinkedList,,//LATEST_TIMESTAMP/Maximum
offset=116101, dataSize=8298
... which has the double ',,' in it which has special meaning for our meta
table comparators.....
> hbase:meta has a row missing hregioninfo and it causes my long-running job to

> Testing 1.0.0 trying long-running tests.
> A row in hbase:meta was missing its HRI entry. It caused the job to fail.
> Around the time of the first task failure, there are balances of the
> hbase:meta region and it was on a server that crashed. I tried to look at
> what happened around time of our writing hbase:meta and I ran into another
> issue; 20 logs of 256MBs filled with WrongRegionException written over a
> minute or two. The actual update of hbase:meta was not in the logs, it'd been
> rotated off.
