> Key: HBASE-17202
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17202
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Balancer, master
> Reporter: Ashu Pachauri
> Assignee: Ashu Pachauri
>
> On master failover or a full cluster restart, we create the
> RegionLocationFinder cache by calculating block locations for every region;
> this cache is used by the balancer for calculating region locality. This
> greatly increases the time it takes for the assignment manager to start and
> affects region availability in scenarios of full cluster restart.
> We should initialize assignment manager with the bare minimum information and
> asynchronously load the block location cache.
