> Key: HBASE-21894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-21894
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: master, meta
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Bahram Chehrazy
> Assignee: Bahram Chehrazy
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: Master-to-update-meta-state-on-ZK-asap.patch,
> Update-master-in-memory-state-of-meta-asap.patch
>
>
>
> When the meta server dies, Master moves that server to the deadServers list
> and submits a SCP, but it doesn't change the Meta region state (to CLOSING,
> CLOSED or OFFLINE) until after SCP finishes. Only at that time the meta
> region state changes from OPEN to OPENING, and then quickly back to OPEN.
>
> This could cause problems if some procedures try to update meta while master
> is recovering the meta region, or even worse, if the master also dies in the
> mean time. Other potential problem include servers trying to update the meta
> which it's down, causing them to abort after several retries.
