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

             Summary: HLogSplitter renaming recovered.edits and CJ removing the 
parent directory races, making the HBCK to think cluster is inconsistent.
                 Key: HBASE-6050
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6050
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan


The scenario is like this
-> A region is getting splitted.
-> The master is still not processed the split .
-> Region server goes down.
-> Split log manager starts splitting the logs and creates the recovered.edits 
in the splitlog path.
-> CJ starts and deletes the entry from META and also just completes the 
deletion of the region dir.
-> in hlogSplitter on final step we rename the recovered.edits to come under 
the regiondir.
There if the regiondir doesnot exist we tend to create and then add the 
recovered.edits.

Because of this HBCK thinks it to be an orphan region because we have the 
regiondir but with no regioninfo.
Ideally cluster is fine but we it is misleading.

          Path dstdir = dst.getParent();
          if (!fs.exists(dstdir)) {
            if (!fs.mkdirs(dstdir)) LOG.warn("mkdir failed on " + dstdir);
          }
        }
        fs.rename(src, dst);
        LOG.debug(" moved " + src + " => " + dst);
      } else {
        LOG.debug("Could not move recovered edits from " + src +
            " as it doesn't exist");
      }
    }
    archiveLogs(null, corruptedLogs, processedLogs,
        oldLogDir, fs, conf);
{code}
