ramkrishna.s.vasudevan updated HBASE-5848: ------------------------------------------ Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Create table with EMPTY_START_ROW passed as splitKey causes the HMaster to > abort > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5848 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5848 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: client > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Assignee: Lars Hofhansl > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-5848.patch, HBASE-5848.patch > > > A coworker of mine just had this scenario. It does not make sense the > EMPTY_START_ROW as splitKey (since the region with the empty start key is > implicit), but it should not cause the HMaster to abort. > The abort happens because it tries to bulk assign the same region twice and > then runs into race conditions with ZK. > The same would (presumably) happen when two identical split keys are passed, > but the client blocks that. The simplest solution here is to also block > passed null or EMPTY_START_ROW as split key by the client. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
