Ted Yu commented on HBASE-15406:
--------------------------------
{code}
4283 ZKUtil.createSetData(zkw, splitOrMergeLock,
4284 ProtobufUtil.prependPBMagic(builder.build().toByteArray()));
{code}
How about calling createEphemeralNodeAndWatch() in the above ?
Protection against changing the switch when hbck is running can be achieved by
checking presence of the lock znode (not its contents).
If hbck dies unexpectedly, the lock znode would disappear.
> Split / merge switch left disabled after early termination of hbck

> This was what I did on cluster with 1.4.0-SNAPSHOT built Thursday:
> Run 'hbase hbck -disableSplitAndMerge' on gateway node of the cluster
> Terminate hbck early
> Enter hbase shell where I observed:
> {code}
> hbase(main):001:0> splitormerge_enabled 'SPLIT'
> false
> 0 row(s) in 0.3280 seconds
> hbase(main):002:0> splitormerge_enabled 'MERGE'
> false
> 0 row(s) in 0.0070 seconds
> {code}
> Expectation is that the split / merge switches should be restored to default
> value after hbck exits.
