stack commented on HBASE-20642:
-------------------------------
bq. ....so as the call is not completed,
The procedure was submitted, right, and started to make progress (it got as far
as changing the table descriptor?). Did the procedure not succeed? Though there
was a crash of Master in the middle of its running? If it did not complete,
that is a problem.
bq. HBase client will retry the call but it will fail with
InvalidFamilyOperationException because we don't differentiate if it is retry
or a new call.
You mean, a user will retry because they think their original submission did
not take? In this case, if a Procedure in-flight modifying the table, this
second submission should fail.
Sounds like the original procedure did not complete? Is that so? That it died
in the middle of its running and so you tried to resubmit the add column... but
it fails because the original procedure died half-way through? Is this what is
happening?
Thanks.
