-----------------------------------------------

bq.What is the above referring to? Which part of the code?

In assignRootAndMeta()
{code}
boolean rit = this.assignmentManager.
      
processRegionInTransitionAndBlockUntilAssigned(HRegionInfo.ROOT_REGIONINFO);

{code}

                
> Process RIT and Master restart may remove an online server considering it as 
> a dead server

> If on master restart it finds the ROOT/META to be in RIT state, master tries 
> to assign the ROOT region through ProcessRIT.
> Master will trigger the assignment and next will try to verify the Root 
> Region Location.
> Root region location verification is done seeing if the RS has the region in 
> its online list.
> If the master triggered assignment has not yet been completed in RS then the 
> verify root region location will fail.
> Because it failed 
> {code}
> splitLogAndExpireIfOnline(currentRootServer);
> {code}
> we do split log and also remove the server from online server list. Ideally 
> here there is nothing to do in splitlog as no region server was restarted.
> So master, though the server is online, master just invalidates the region 
> server.
> In a special case, if i have only one RS then my cluster will become non 
> operative.
