Ah, yes, I also noticed this when review this PR as you mentioned CatalogJanitor. But even we do not write directly to region dir, there could still be an interval between we move the region into place and add it in meta table? I guess we should have already found the way to deal with this, otherwise it could cause data loss... -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
