I don't follow. HBCKSCP doesn't do assign of meta
{quote}

This is exactly the problem. In HBCKSCP we introduced a way to fix the 'unknown 
server' problem, but the same trick can not be used to fix meta, then how do we 
fix the cluster if meta is on an 'unknown server'?

Or, if we have a way to make meta up, without using the trick in HBCKSCP, where 
we scan meta table to search for 'unknown servers', which means we can bring 
meta up with normal SCP, then why not use SCP to bring other regions up? What 
is the value of HBCKSCP?

{quote}
Yes, TestHBCKSCP, could indeed be 'artificial' (The things that HBCKSCP 
addresses cannot be addressed by master restart... ). Disable, file an issue 
and assign me to fix (w/ a suggestion on how better to test if you have one)?
{quote}

Could you please explain more on why the things can not be addressed by master 
restart? As we will read meta again when restarting master?

Thanks.
