Ashu Pachauri updated HBASE-16302:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Replication exports metric ageOfLastShippedOp as an indication of how much 
replication is lagging. But, with multiwal enabled, it's not representative 
because replication could be lagging for a long time for one wal group 
(something wrong with a particular region) while being fine for others. The 
ageOfLastShippedOp becomes a useless metric for alerting in such a case.

We should just report the maximum of the age of last shipped ops across 
walgroups.

An example improvement can be providing age of last shipped op per wal group.
