stack commented on HBASE-9110:
------------------------------
Yes, run log splitting on an offline cluster.
If it was a clean shutdown, there would be no logs to split.
If it was not clean shutdown, the cluster cannot come up till after logs have
split anyways -- and do it as part of migration, there'd be no messing w/
figuring has meta been deployed or not.
> Meta region edits not recovered while migrating to 0.96.0

> I was doing the migration testing from 0.94.11-snapshot to 0.95.0, and faced
> this issue.
> 1) Do some edits in meta table (for eg, create a table).
> 2) Kill the cluster.
> (I used kill because we would be doing log splitting when upgrading anyway).
> 3) There is some dependency on WALs. Upgrade the bits to 0.95.2-snapshot.
> Start the cluster.
> Every thing comes up. I see log splitting happening as expected. But, the
> WAL-data for meta table is missing.
> I could see recovered.edits file for meta created, and placed at the right
> location. It is just that the new HMaster code tries to recover meta by
> looking at meta prefix in the log name, and if it didn't find one, just opens
> the meta region. So, the recovered.edits file, created afterwards, is not
> honored.
> Opening this jira to let folks give their opinions about how to tackle this
> migration issue.
