Ted Yu commented on HBASE-4213:
-------------------------------
In HRegionServer.java, the following method would always return true if there
is no intervening IOException:
{code}
+ public boolean refreshSchema(byte[] tableName) throws IOException {
{code}
I wonder if the return type should be void.
> Support instant schema updates with out master's intervention (i.e with out
> enable/disable and bulk assign/unassign)
