> While diagnosing a rare failure in IntegrationTestLoadAndVerify, I discovered
> this scenario. Master was restarted by CM. Upon rejoining the cluster it
> successfully assumes responsibility as active master, but apparently the
> finishInitialization method never completes. The last log line from that
> thread is
> {noformat}
> 2014-11-10 17:01:29,940 INFO [master:ip-172-31-9-135:60000] master.HMaster:

> I see region states populated from existing znodes. AM inventoried the online
> regions, acknowledged that this was master failover. There it sits,
> responding to RPC's with {{PleaseHoldException: Master is initializing}}.
> For the sake of resiliency, we should detect this scenario and at least
> release control as active master.
