             Summary: Unclaimed replication queues can go undetected
                 Key: HBASE-18549
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18549
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Replication
            Reporter: Ashu Pachauri
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 1.3.2


We have come across this situation multiple times where a zookeeper issues can 
cause NodeFailoverWorker to fail picking up replication queue for a dead region 
server silently. One example is when the znode size for a particular queue 
exceed jute.maxBuffer value.

There can be other situations that may lead to this and just go undetected. We 
need to have a metric for number of unclaimed replication queues. This will 
help in mitigating the problem through alerting on the metric and identifying 
underlying issues.
