stack commented on HBASE-3744:
------------------------------
BulkStartupAssigner was for bulk assigning on startup. Seems like its been
pulled around. Could BulkStartupAssigner be renamed BulkOpener? And
BulkDisabler named BulkCloser? I see need of a BulkOpen on regionserver crash
(if its not being used already).
> createTable blocks until all regions are out of transition

> In HBASE-3305, the behavior of createTable was changed and introduced this
> bug: createTable now blocks until all regions have been assigned, since it
> uses BulkStartupAssigner. BulkStartupAssigner.waitUntilDone calls
> assignmentManager.waitUntilNoRegionsInTransition, which waits across all
> regions, not just the regions of the table that has just been created.
> We saw an issue where one table had a region which was unable to be opened,
> so it was stuck in RegionsInTransition permanently (every open was failing).
> Since this was the case, waitUntilDone would always block indefinitely even
> though the newly created table had been assigned.
