Ted Yu commented on HBASE-3904:
-------------------------------
In Master, we have:
{code}
public void createTable(HTableDescriptor desc, byte [][] splitKeys)
throws IOException {
createTable(desc, splitKeys, false);
}
{code}
The above is called by HBaseAdmin.createTableAsync() - meaning it is
asynchronous.
In order to keep backward compatibility, I propose introducing new methods in
HBaseAdmin:
{code}
public void createTableSync(HTableDescriptor desc);
public void createTableSync(HTableDescriptor desc, byte [][] splitKeys);
{code}
They would end up with Master calling:
{code}
public void createTableSync(HTableDescriptor desc, byte [][] splitKeys)
throws IOException {
createTable(desc, splitKeys, true);
}
{code}
> HConnection.isTableAvailable returns true even with not all regions available.

> Issue Type: Bug

> Priority: Minor

> This function as per the java doc is supposed to return true iff "all the
> regions in the table are available". But if the table is still being created
> this function may return inconsistent results (For example, when a table with
> a large number of split keys is created).
