-------------------------------------
Summary: A corrupt HFile could cause endless attempts to assign
the region without a chance of success
Key: HBASE-9740
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9740
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Aditya Kishore
Assignee: Aditya Kishore
As described in HBASE-9737, a corrupt HFile in a region could lead to an
assignment storm in the cluster since the Master will keep trying to assign the
region to each region server one after another and obviously none will succeed.
The region server, upon detecting such a scenario should mark the region as
"RS_ZK_REGION_FAILED_ERROR" (or something to the effect) in the Zookeeper which
should indicate the Master to stop assigning the region until the error has
been resolved (via an HBase shell command, probably "assign"?)
