----------------------------------------
Resolution: Incomplete
> Region gets lost when balancer & SSH both trying to assign
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-9665
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9665
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Region Assignment
> Affects Versions: 0.96.0
> Reporter: Jeffrey Zhong
> Priority: Critical
>
> In summary, a server dies and its regions are re-assigned. While right before
> SSH, balancer is starting assign one region on the server to somewhere.
> The balancer assignment got preempted by the SSH assignment:

> region:6deb1bfefe8cbdb443084efe919fdeb7 , which we are already trying to
> OPEN. Cancelling OPENING.

> The SSH assignment(by GeneralBulkAssigner) failed too due to:

> In the end, the region 6deb1bfefe8cbdb443084efe919fdeb7 is lost.
> Below is the master log, you can see both balancer and SSH try to assign the
