That is different. Delete may or may not succeed, while during the deletion the
IOException may be thrown.
In the above case we have a method that by its name and thus definition suppose
to return 'true' if Master is running and 'false' if Master is not running. And
it doesn't do that. And as described above it its meaningless since it can
never be called unless Master is running which is the prerequisite for creating
HBaseAdmin instance. But once the instance is created its already implied that
Master is running. Don't you agree?
