Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13959:
-----------------------------------------

The proposed version marker of HADOOP-13985 can be used here.

# if the request fails with no such entry: bad table.
# if the request fails for wrong  version: fail with message
# if the request fails for low-level reason: pass up

There's one risk here, transient failures during FS launch. This is something 
which has surfaced with S3A and bucket existence checks...I've concluded that 
it's hard to handle elegantly

> HADOOP-13908 adds initialization when a table isn't created, using the 
> {{describe()}} call.
> AWS document this as inefficient, and throttle it. We should be able to get 
> away with a simple table lookup as the probe
