Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-776:
--------------------------------------
During the duration of this incident the regionserver in question was being
pounded while the rest of the cluster was idle. Wouldn't it make sense to
migrate META from a heavily loaded regionserver if another is substantially
less loaded in general?
> Master not reassigning .META. from failed/failing regionserver

> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: master
> Affects Versions: 0.2.0
> Environment: CentOS x86_64, JDK 1.6, Hadoop 0.17.1, HBase 0.2.0,
> r679585, Fri Jul 25 16:47:26 UTC 2008

> In our environment sometimes the regionserver carrying META is also assigned
> to the 'content' table, into which objects retrieved from Internet crawling
> is stored. For unclear reason the regionserver occasionally goes "deaf"
> (seperate issue) and when this happens META is no longer available. The
> master then never reassigns META, so the whole cluster is down from this
> point and does not recover. Logs attached.
