Varun Sharma commented on HBASE-8285:
-------------------------------------
I attached v4 for 0.94 with Nicholas' comment incorporated into it.
[~te...@apache.org] - I still need make similar changes for trunk and attach a
patch. Will do that today...
Thanks

> Steps to reproduce this bug:
> 1) Gracefull restart a region server causing regions to get redistributed.
> 2) Client call to this region keeps failing since Meta Cache is never purged
> on the client for the region that moved.
> Reason behind the bug:
> 1) Client continues to hit the old region server.
> 2) The old region server throws NotServingRegionException which is not
> handled correctly and the META cache entries are never purged for that server
> causing the client to keep hitting the old server.
> The reason lies in ServerCallable code since we only purge META cache entries
> when there is a RetriesExhaustedException, SocketTimeoutException or
> ConnectException. However, there is no case check for
> NotServingRegionException(s).
> Why is this not a problem for Scan(s) and Put(s) ?
> a) If a region server is not hosting a region/scanner, then an
> UnknownScannerException is thrown which causes a relocateRegion() call
> causing a refresh of the META cache for that particular region.
> b) For put(s), the processBatchCallback() interface in HConnectionManager is
> used which clears out META cache entries for all kinds of exceptions except
> DoNotRetryException.
