> We've observed the following situation inside of a RegionServer which leaves
> an HConnection in a broken state as a result of the ZooKeeper client having
> received an AUTH_FAILED case in the Phoenix secondary indexing code-path. The
> result was that the HConnection used to write the secondary index updates
> failed every time the client re-attempted the write but we had no outward
> signs from the HConnection that there was a problem with that HConnection
> instance.
> ZooKeeper programmer docs tell us that if a ZooKeeper instance goes to the
> {{AUTH_FAILED}} state that we must open a new ZooKeeper instance:
> [https://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.4.13/zookeeperProgrammers.html#ch_zkSessions]
> When a new HConnection (or one without a cached meta location) tries to
> access ZooKeeper to find meta's location or the cluster ID, this spin
> indefinitely because we can never access ZooKeeper because our client is
> broken from the AUTH_FAILED. For the Phoenix use-case (where we're trying to
> use this HConnection within the RS), this breaks things pretty fast.
> The circumstances that caused us to observe this are not an HBase (or Phoenix
> or ZooKeeper) problem. The AUTH_FAILED exception we see is a result of
> networking issues on a user's system. Despite this, we can make our handling
> of this situation better.
> We already have logic inside of RecoverableZooKeeper to re-create a ZooKeeper
> object when we need one (e.g. session expired/closed). We can extend this
> same logic to also re-create the ZK client object if we observe an
> AUTH_FAILED state.
