------------------------------------
@Eli - yeah, I already mentioned that that is correct in response to Todd; I'd
forgotten we had added that to HBase
> HA/Distributed HMaster via RegionServers

> Key: HBASE-5353
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5353
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: master, regionserver
> Affects Versions: 0.94.0
> Reporter: Jesse Yates
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, the HMaster node must be considered a 'special' node (single point
> of failure), meaning that the node must be protected more than the other
> commodity machines. It should be possible to instead have the HMaster be much
> more available, either in a distributed sense (meaning a bit rewrite) or with
> multiple instances and automatic failover.
