stack commented on HBASE-20065:
-------------------------------

Nice cleanup.

Why not let the server set the time rather than do it in client:

1449          Put put = makePutFromRegionInfo(regionInfo, 
EnvironmentEdgeManager.currentTime());

... previous we did not pass a time.

Yeah, it is done again later in the class when we remove this and pass 
currentTime instead... 

addRegionsToMeta(connection, regionInfos, regionReplication, 
HConstants.LATEST_TIMESTAMP);      

This could go badly wrong if a new Master has a clock that is behind that of 
the server hosting hbase:meta.

nit: Comment is wrong here now...

1531          // use the maximum of what master passed us vs local time.
1595          long time = Math.max(EnvironmentEdgeManager.currentTime(), 
masterSystemTime);     1532          long time = 
EnvironmentEdgeManager.currentTime();

Not sure what was going on before... we had a master time?

Removing this is nice cleanup.

225         // Start the RegionStateStore               
226         regionStateStore.start();

HBCK doesn't work against hbase2 and setting time on client-side seems 
problematic to me.

Otherwise, really nice cleanup. I like the removal of unused overrides.
