Allan Yang commented on HBASE-21444:
------------------------------------
The patch can't apply to branch-2.0, can you rebase?
This may be similar with HBASE-21035, you can refer to some discussions there.

> Ambari metric server uses HBase as storage and currently have different
> znodes (/hbase-unsecure and /hbase-secure) to differentiate secure/unsecure
> deployment of HBase.
> As it also supports the rollback of the cluster from kerberised to
> non-kerberised (includes step of changing znode from /hbase-secure to
> /hbase-unsecure) , but with HBase 2.0 , meta-region-server znode from old
> zookeeper znodes will have regionserver which was long ago gone and there
> will be no procedure to transition it, resulting it to get stuck for lifetime.
> One option is to clear the znodes before rollingback but as it used to work
> with prior releases due to RecoverMetaProcedure, the ask is if we can fix
> meta assignment in case the wrong state is available in znode.
