> We have encountered two issues with region warmup before the assignment
> manager gracefully moves a region from one regionserver to another.
> The first instance is HBASE-26722. Part of the failure chain is temporary
> double assignment like conditions where both the source and destination
> regionservers think they have exclusive rights to storefile management (as
> they should) but warmup opens a region before it is closed. While this can be
> remediated with more care to this case, it is unclear if warmup affords
> significant advantage. The motivation of the original commit in 2015
> introducing this feature was avoidance of blockcache misses once region
> ownership transfer was advertised to clients. Depending on use case and
> additional default-false schema options (like preload) this could be
> valuable. Or not.
> The second instance is in place upgrade from HBase 1 to HBase 2. In a
> scenario where regionservers have been replaced by HBase 2 versions, but the
> master is still HBase 1, the region warmup RPC request fails. This is not
> particularly harmful but indicates it will not be useful during the
> transition period.
> We think it would be good to allow for warmup before move to be optionally
> disabled by a site configuration setting. In particular there have been many
> unrelated changes committed since 2015 and expectations of invariants in the
> contribution of the warmup-on-move feature have been invalidated. HBASE-26722
> may be the only case, or it might not. This is a fairly trivial change.
