Abhishek Singh Chouhan commented on HBASE-18796:
------------------------------------------------
[~tedyu] My intention behind this was to put it like a utility method just like
many other methods in metatableaccessor that could be used elsewhere too in the
future.
> Admin#isTableAvailable returns incorrect result before daughter regions are
> opened

>
> 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.
