Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-5589:
---------------------------------------

I've tested a version of this at adds the offline method "in the middle" of the 
HMasterInterface and then setup a cluster with a patched master (check version 
hash on web port) and 5 unpatched region servers (check version hash on web 
port).  Methods below offline included balancer toggles -- I assumed that if 
order of declaration mattered the methods after the inserted method would have 
compatibility problems.  The methods below were balancer() and 
balance_switch(bool).  I fired up an shell with the prepatched version issued 
balancer commands.  They succeeded.  I fired up a shell with patch version and 
issued balancer commands.  They also succeeded.  

This might be due to some reflection/concidence with jruby so I'm going to dig 
into the rpc code to verify as well.
