> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.90.3
> Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans
> Assignee: Jean-Daniel Cryans
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.90.4

>
> I just witnessed a job having failed tasks because of RegionOfflineException.
> This should normally happen because the table is disabled, but this can also
> happen because the parent is offline. Probably 99.999% of the time users
> don't hit it because SplitTransaction is able to offline the parent and add
> the first daughter quickly enough, but in my case the cluster was so slow
> that I was able to see.
> Maybe we should check in HCM not only if the region is offline but also if
> it's split, in which case we should retry?
