Summary: Master fails to startup on large clusters, refreshing block distribution Key: HBASE-20548 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20548 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 1.4.4 Reporter: Thiruvel Thirumoolan Assignee: Thiruvel Thirumoolan Fix For: 1.5.0, 1.4.5 On our large clusters with, master has failed to startup within specified time and aborted itself since it was initializing HDFS block distribution. Enable table also takes time for larger tables for the same reason. My proposal is to refresh HDFS block distribution at the end of master initialization and not at retainAssignment()'s createCluster(). This would address HBASE-16570's intention, but avoid the problems we ran into. cc [~aoxiang] [~tedyu] -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
