   > should not depend on the data on zookeeper.
   
   I agreed with you that we may not be ready to totally skip relying on the 
data stored on zookeeper, that's definitely a boarder discussion on what HBase 
currently depends on Zookeeper (branch-2 and master), especially if data on 
Zookeeper could be ephemeral or removed. (I thought we're in the progress of 
moving data into ROOT region, aren't we ? e.g. 
[Proc-v2](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20610)
   
   Also, my initial goal is that the meta data/directory should not be deleted 
if possible, and we're trying to provide a persisted condition not to always 
delete meta if it's not `partial` (protected by the ZK data).
   
   sorry that I may be newbie on the proc-v2 and zk data, should we start a 
thread on the dev@ list to discuss about the following ? (my goal is to find a 
consensus how we can move this PR to either completes it or not fixed)
   
   1. should we delete meta directory when HM starts ? 
   2. after 2.2+, should not depend on the data on zookeeper and have more of 
the info into proc-v2 in the master region?
