Corey J. Nolet updated ACCUMULO-2696: ------------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 1.6.1) 1.6.2 > Master has misleading log message in case of failure for status thread > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-2696 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2696 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Bug > Components: master > Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.5.0, 1.6.0 > Reporter: Sean Busbey > Assignee: Al Krinker > Priority: Minor > Labels: logging, newbie > Fix For: 1.6.2, 1.7.0 > > > the status thread is a worker within the Master that handles internal state > transitions. It contains this handler in a catch-all block to ensure it keeps > working: > {noformat} > } catch (Throwable t) { > log.error("Error balancing tablets", t); > UtilWaitThread.sleep(WAIT_BETWEEN_ERRORS); > } > {noformat} > while balancing does happen in this thread (in a call to updateStatus before > this catch), the try block encompasses a great deal of additional code. so > this message can be misleading about where to look for problems. It should be > updated to state that there was a problem iwth transitioning states and > should probably indicate both that it will retry and how long it will pause > before doing so. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
