stack commented on HBASE-5270:
------------------------------
@Prakash
bq. .... then the next step, that you outlined in your scenario, cannot be
allowed
How should we do this boss?
bq. The problem you are outlining is probably still there but the scenario has
to be refined.
What should I add? If we allow that the split could take a long time, its
possible that on entry to the log splitting the server was good but by the end
it could have gone AWOL.
bq. And then it should initialize everything based on that knowledge which must
not change during initialization.
I think the root issue is that it needs to scan .META. and -ROOT- as part of
the startup; they need to be assigned and up w/ all edits in place. Thats
whats proving to be a little tough to ensure.
(Thanks for the review P).

> This JIRA continues the effort from HBASE-5179. Starting with Stack's
> comments about patches for 0.92 and TRUNK:
> Reviewing 0.92v17
> isDeadServerInProgress is a new public method in ServerManager but it does
> not seem to be used anywhere.
> Does isDeadRootServerInProgress need to be public? Ditto for meta version.
> This method param names are not right 'definitiveRootServer'; what is meant
> by definitive? Do they need this qualifier?
> Is there anything in place to stop us expiring a server twice if its carrying
> root and meta?
> What is difference between asking assignment manager isCarryingRoot and this
> variable that is passed in? Should be doc'd at least. Ditto for meta.
> I think I've asked for this a few times - onlineServers needs to be
> explained... either in javadoc or in comment. This is the param passed into
> joinCluster. How does it arise? I think I know but am unsure. God love the
> poor noob that comes awandering this code trying to make sense of it all.
> It looks like we get the list by trawling zk for regionserver znodes that
> have not checked in. Don't we do this operation earlier in master setup? Are
> we doing it again here?
> Though distributed split log is configured, we will do in master single
> process splitting under some conditions with this patch. Its not explained in
> code why we would do this. Why do we think master log splitting 'high
> priority' when it could very well be slower. Should we only go this route if
> distributed splitting is not going on. Do we know if concurrent distributed
> log splitting and master splitting works?
> Why would we have dead servers in progress here in master startup? Because a
> servershutdownhandler fired?
> This patch is different to the patch for 0.90. Should go into trunk first
> with tests, then 0.92. Should it be in this issue? This issue is really hard
> to follow now. Maybe this issue is for 0.90.x and new issue for more work on
> this trunk patch?
> This patch needs to have the v18 differences applied.
