Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-2413:
--------------------------------------
Definitely need a good checkup/cleanup on where we use server+port vs
server+port+startcode. So I guess we already have the map to check if we exist
when receiving a startup. Good stuff guys.

> This happens if the RS is restarted before the zk node expires. The sequence
> is as follows:
> 1. RS1 dies - lets say its server string was HOST1:PORT1:TS1
> 2. In a few seconds RS1 is restarted, it comes up as HOST1:PORT1:TS2 (TS2 is
> more recent than TS1)
> 3. Master gets a start up message from RS1 with the server name as
> HOST1:PORT1:TS2
> 4. Master adds this as a new RS, tries to red
> ---- The master does not use the generation stamps to detect that RS1 has
> already restarted.
> ---- Also, if RS1 contained meta, master would try to go to HOST1:PORT1:TS1.
> It would end up talking to HOST1:PORT1:TS2, which spews a bunch of not
> serving region exceptions.
> 5. zk node expires for HOST1:PORT1:TS1
> 6. Master tries to process shutdown for HOST1:PORT1:TS1 - this probably
> interferes with HOST1:PORT1:TS2 and ends up somehow removing the reassign
> meta in the master's queue.
> ---- Meta never comes online and master continues logging the following
> exception indefinitely:
