> Replication gets stuck for empty WALs
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-18137
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18137
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Replication
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1
> Reporter: Ashu Pachauri
> Assignee: Vincent Poon
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.4.0, 1.3.2, 1.1.11, 1.2.7

> Replication assumes that only the last WAL of a recovered queue can be empty.
> But, intermittent DFS issues may cause empty WALs being created (without the
> PWAL magic), and a roll of WAL to happen without a regionserver crash. This
> will cause recovered queues to have empty WALs in the middle. This cause
> replication to get stuck:
> {code}

> The WAL in question was completely empty but there were other WALs in the
> recovered queue which were newer and non-empty.
