---------------------------------------
bq.I want to disable it because this facility is not finished and meantime
What's not finished? What issues are you seeing with it? For us meta on master
is the only thing that gets IT tests to pass on a more consistent basis. I'd
prefer to fix any issues if possible.
> Undo HMaster carrying regions in master branch as default

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Balancer, master
> Reporter: stack
>
> I thought we had an issue to do this but I can't find it so here is a new one.
> Currently, in master branch, HMaster is a RegionServer and carries meta
> regions such as hbase:meta. Disable this facility by default until better
> thought through (I think we should undo master ever carrying regions; FBers
> are thinking we should go forward with notion that master carries meta/system
> regions. TODO). I want to disable it because this facility is not finished
> and meantime I want to test new stuff coming in on master branch w/o this new
> feature getting in the way.
> Parking here a patch that has how to disable master carrying regions and a
> probably redundant test that ensures all works when master is not carrying
> meta regions (added because it WASN'T working for me -- but was pilot error).
