> During periods where DNS is not working properly, we can wind up caching
> connections to master or regionservers where the initial hostname resolution
> and the resolution is never re-attempted. This means that clients will
> forever get UnknownHostException for any calls.
> When constructing a BlockingRpcChannelImplementation, we instantiate the
> InetSocketAddress to use for the connection. This instance is then used in
> the rpc client connection, where we check isUnresolved() and throw an
> UnknownHostException if that returns true. However, at this point the rpc
> channel is already cached in the HConnectionImplementation map of stubs. So
> at this point it will never be resolved.
> Setting the config for hbase.resolve.hostnames.on.failure masks this issue,
> since the stub key used is modified to contain the address. However, even in
> that case, if DNS fails, an rpc channel instance with unresolved ISA will
> still be cached in the stubs under the hostname only key.
