Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-4373:
--------------------------------------

Trying to understand this patch.  So with the force flag removed, what is the 
default behavior?  If the state is not OFFLINE and we try to assign somewhere 
else, do we force the node to OFFLINE always?

> HBaseAdmin.assign() does not use force flag

> 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.
