Ted Yu commented on HBASE-9465: ------------------------------- HBASE-15883 introduced hbase:replication table. Can we use hbase:replication instead of hbase:meta for bookkeeping ? > HLog entries are not pushed to peer clusters serially when region-move or RS > failure in master cluster > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-9465 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9465 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: regionserver, Replication > Reporter: Honghua Feng > Assignee: Phil Yang > > When region-move or RS failure occurs in master cluster, the hlog entries > that are not pushed before region-move or RS-failure will be pushed by > original RS(for region move) or another RS which takes over the remained hlog > of dead RS(for RS failure), and the new entries for the same region(s) will > be pushed by the RS which now serves the region(s), but they push the hlog > entries of a same region concurrently without coordination. > This treatment can possibly lead to data inconsistency between master and > peer clusters: > 1. there are put and then delete written to master cluster > 2. due to region-move / RS-failure, they are pushed by different > replication-source threads to peer cluster > 3. if delete is pushed to peer cluster before put, and flush and > major-compact occurs in peer cluster before put is pushed to peer cluster, > the delete is collected and the put remains in peer cluster > In this scenario, the put remains in peer cluster, but in master cluster the > put is masked by the delete, hence data inconsistency between master and peer > clusters -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
