Allan Yang edited comment on HBASE-21035 at 8/10/18 1:11 PM: ------------------------------------------------------------- If scheduling a SCP for servers with '-splitting' is not a good idea, maybe we can go around. But before HBASE-20708, there is a method called processofflineServersWithOnlineRegions which will schedule a SCP for any dead server have regions on it(which will cause HBASE-20976...). But after HBASE-20708 there isn't( replaced by processOfflineRegions). Can we just bring the logic in processofflineServersWithOnlineRegions back? What I want is the same behave w/ or wo/ HBASE-20708. was (Author: allan163): If scheduling a SCP for servers with '-splitting' is not a good idea, then we can go around.

It will > only check WAL dirs and compare to Zookeeper RS nodes to decide which server > need to expire. For servers which's dir is ending with 'SPLITTING', we assure > that there will be a SCP for it. > But, if the server with the meta region crashed before master restarts, and > if all the procedure wals are lost (due to bug, or deleted manually, > whatever), the new restarted master will be stuck when initing. Since no one > will bring meta region online. > Although it is an anomaly case, but I think no matter what happens, we need > to online meta region. Otherwise, we are sitting ducks, noting can be done. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
