Client may time out in the meantime.

Heartbeats are every couple of seconds. <property> <name>hbase.regionserver.msginterval</name> <value>3000</value> <description>Interval between messages from the RegionServer to HMaster in milliseconds. Default is 3 seconds. </description> </property> Master will consider regionserver dead only after the regionservers' lease expires in the master. This is the below configuration: <property> <name>hbase.master.lease.period</name> <value>120000</value> <description>HMaster server lease period in milliseconds. Default is 120 seconds. Region servers must report in within this period else they are considered dead. On loaded cluster, may need to up this period.</description> </property> St.Ack
