churro morales created HBASE-17698: -------------------------------------- Summary: ReplicationEndpoint choosing sinks Key: HBASE-17698 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17698 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.4.0 Reporter: churro morales
The only time we choose new sinks is when we have a ConnectException, but we have encountered other exceptions where there is a problem contacting a particular sink and replication gets backed up for any sources that try that sink HBASE-17675 occurred when there was a bad keytab refresh and the source was stuck. Another issue we recently had was a bad drive controller on the sink side and replication was stuck again. Is there any reason not to choose new sinks anytime we have a RemoteException? I can understand TableNotFound we don't have to choose new sinks, but for all other cases this seems like the safest approach. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
