>
> This scenario was discovered by the simulation framework, but it exists also
> in the non-simulated code.
> When {{IndexSizeTrigger}} requests SPLITSHARD, which is then successfully
> started and “completed” from the point of view of {{ExecutePlanAction}}, the
> reality is that it still can take significant amount of time until the moment
> when the new replicas fully recover and cause the switch of shard states
> (parent to INACTIVE, child from RECOVERY to ACTIVE).
> If this time is longer than the trigger's {{waitFor}} the trigger will issue
> the same SPLITSHARD request again. {{SplitShardCmd}} doesn't prevent this new
> request from being processed because the parent shard is still ACTIVE.
> However, a section of the code in {{SplitShardCmd}} will realize that
> sub-slices with the target names already exist and they are not active, at
> which point it will delete the new sub-slices ({{SplitShardCmd:182}}).
> The end result is an infinite loop, where {{IndexSizeTrigger}} will keep
> generating SPLITSHARD, and {{SplitShardCmd}} will keep deleting the
> recovering sub-slices created by the previous command.
> A simple solution is for the parent shard to be marked to indicate that it’s
> in a process of splitting, so that no other split is attempted on the same
> shard. Furthermore, {{IndexSizeTrigger}} could temporarily exclude such
> shards from monitoring.
