Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-9514:
------------------------------------
How about a RS is dead but master doesn't know about it yet? So I was thinking
to control it from the root, AM#assign() method, the final place an openRegion
request is sent out to another RS.
> Prevent region from assigning before log splitting is done

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Region Assignment
> Reporter: Jimmy Xiang
> Assignee: Jimmy Xiang
>
> If a region is assigned before log splitting is done by the server shutdown
> handler, the edits belonging to this region in the hlogs of the dead server
> will be lost.
> Generally this is not an issue if users don't assign/unassign a region from
> hbase shell or via hbase admin. These commands are marked for experts only in
> the hbase shell help too. However, chaos monkey doesn't care.
> If we can prevent from assigning such regions in a bad time, it would make
> things a little safer.
