stack created HBASE-15549: ----------------------------- Summary: Change TABLES_ON_MASTER to false in master branch Key: HBASE-15549 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15549 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Components: Balancer, master Reporter: stack
I thought we had an issue to do this but I can't find it so here is a new one. Currently, in master branch, HMaster is a RegionServer and carries meta regions such as hbase:meta. Disable this facility by default until better thought through (I think we should undo master ever carrying regions; FBers are thinking we should go forward with notion that master carries meta/system regions. TODO). I want to disable it because this facility is not finished and meantime I want to test new stuff coming in on master branch w/o this new feature getting in the way. Parking here a patch that has how to disable master carrying regions and a probably redundant test that ensures all works when master is not carrying meta regions (added because it WASN'T working for me -- but was pilot error). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
