>
> When hbck runs it creates a lock file to ensure that no two hbck instances
> are running. We've been seeing creating and removing that file fail sometimes.
> This improvement should make the creation, closing of the file, and the
> deletion retry multiple times. This should allow our alerting which uses this
> command to be more reliable and have fewer false positives.
