HBaseAdmin.assign() doesnot use force flag
------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-4373
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4373
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
Priority: Minor
The HBaseAdmin.assign()
{code}
public void assign(final byte [] regionName, final boolean force)
throws MasterNotRunningException, ZooKeeperConnectionException, IOException {
getMaster().assign(regionName, force);
}
{code}
In the HMaster we call
{code}
Pair<HRegionInfo, ServerName> pair =
MetaReader.getRegion(this.catalogTracker, regionName);
if (pair == null) throw new
UnknownRegionException(Bytes.toString(regionName));
if (cpHost != null) {
if (cpHost.preAssign(pair.getFirst(), force)) {
return;
}
}
assignRegion(pair.getFirst());
if (cpHost != null) {
cpHost.postAssign(pair.getFirst(), force);
}
{code}
The force flag is not getting used. May be we need to update the javadoc or do
not provide the force flag as a parameter if we are not going to use it.
