stack commented on HBASE-21073:
-------------------------------

bq. stack - is this the same thing as HBASE-21191?

No. HBASE-21191 is about our taking a holding pattern when no procedure for 
hbase:meta assign and then ditto, later, if none for hbase:namespace.

This issue is about a more comprehensive state where the master come up in a 
general "single-user" type mode with aspects such as UI and other facility are 
available, all procedures WALs have been loaded, and hbase:meta has been 'read' 
w/o the need of a separate regionserver to host hbase:meta region. You'd then 
be able to poke at the Master and effect various repairs.

> Make it so we can bring up a Master in "maintenance mode". This is parse of 
> master wal procs but not taking on regionservers. It would be in a state 
> where "repair" Procedures could run; e.g. a Procedure that could recover meta 
> by looking for meta WALs, splitting them, dropping recovered.edits, and even 
> making it so meta is readable. See parent issue for why needed (disaster 
> recovery).
