             Summary: Decommissioned hosts should be rejected by the HMaster
                 Key: HBASE-28342
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-28342
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ahmad Alhour


We had an issue with a cluster, internally at HubSpot, where a decommissioned 
RegionServer was still being picked up by the HMaster. The host the 
RegionServer was living on was impaired, and we couldn't correctly kill the 
RegionServer, so the HMaster would periodically hear back from the host and 
remove it from its dead host's list.

We would like to implement a fix so that this doesn't happen. We're thinking of 
adding a boolean flag to the Decommission RegionServer Admin API that signifies 
ignoring the startcode of the servername, when the boolean is True the host 
will be rejected every time it comes back even if it had a different startcode.
