Abhishek Singh Chouhan commented on HBASE-18796: ------------------------------------------------ Need to check why locations were added during the meta update when the method description says that it does not add the location (which seems like the correct behavior). > Admin#isTableAvailable returns incorrect result before daughter regions are > opened > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-18796 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18796 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.3.1 > Reporter: Abhishek Singh Chouhan > > Admin#isTableAvailable checks if it can getServerName for the meta entries it > reads. During the time of split server location are added to the meta entries > in MetaTableAccessor#splitRegion although the description of the method says > "Does not add the location information to the daughter regions since they are > not open yet.". At this point during the split daughter regions are not > actually open, so we can get to a state where parent is offline, daughters > are not yet open but isTableAvailable returns true. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
