stack commented on HBASE-3904:
------------------------------
Can we do something else? The HBaseAdmin createTable knows how many regions it
has to create so in here, it could wait till all are on line? You might want
to add an isTableAvailable that takes a count of regions which will only return
true if it finds that many or more regions on line?
> HConnection.isTableAvailable returns true even with not all regions available.

> 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).
