stack commented on HBASE-5666:
------------------------------
Thanks for digging. Seems like the RecoverableZK is failing silently (smile).
Seriously, it may be retrying any ConnectionLossException but if no base dir up
on in zk, there's nothing for ZKW to 'watch'... it should fail construction (or
this test needs to be moved out to an init method or something ...). What you
reckon?
