stack updated HBASE-2413:
-------------------------
Attachment: newserver.txt
Untested patch posted so we can discuss. It does nothing but make code that
was already in place actually work.
Patch looks at new server and if it has same host+port as a currently
registered server, we reject it. On RS side, it pauses and then retries
forever.
A more involved soln. would have us run the code that is executed when znode
expires but then when znode actually expires, the code will be run again and
we'd have to be careful we recognized the difference between the two runs and
not knock out a server that was legit.

> 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:
