stack commented on HBASE-5916:
------------------------------
Well, thats useful, right? Its useful in case where a regionserver crashes and
a new one comes up fast, before the original regionserver's znode has expired
in zk. We shouldn't remove it.
On startup, you should not get this exception unless you have a condition like
that described above where there was a regionserver on same host and port
registered previously in the master and then a new regionserver comes in w/
same host and port but with different startcode?
> RS restart just before master intialization we make the cluster non operative

> Key: HBASE-5916
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5916
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.92.1, 0.94.0
> Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
> Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 0.94.1
>
>
> Consider a case where my master is getting restarted. RS that was alive when
> the master restart started, gets restarted before the master initializes the
> ServerShutDownHandler.
> {code}
> serverShutdownHandlerEnabled = true;
> {code}
> In this case when the RS tries to register with the master, the master will
> try to expire the server but the server cannot be expired as still the
> serverShutdownHandler is not enabled.
> This case may happen when i have only one RS gets restarted or all the RS
> gets restarted at the same time.(before assignRootandMeta).
> {code}
> LOG.info(message);
> if (existingServer.getStartcode() < serverName.getStartcode()) {
> LOG.info("Triggering server recovery; existingServer " +
> existingServer + " looks stale, new server:" + serverName);
> expireServer(existingServer);
> }
> {code}
> If another RS is brought up then the cluster comes back to normalcy.
> May be a very corner case.
