Anjan Das commented on HBASE-24292: ----------------------------------- Lorem Ipsum. > A "stuck" master should not idle as active without taking action > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-24292 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-24292 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: master, Region Assignment > Affects Versions: 2.3.0 > Reporter: Nick Dimiduk > Assignee: Rahul Kumar > Priority: Critical > > The master schedules a SCP for the region server hosting meta. However, due > to a misconfiguration, the cluster cannot make progress. After fixing the > configuration issue and restarting, the cluster still cannot make progress. > After the configured period (15 minuets), the master enters a "holding > pattern" where it retains Active master status, but isn't taking any action. > This "brown-out" state is toxic. It should either keep trying to make > progress, or it should abort. Staying up and not doing anything is the wrong > thing to do. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
