Zhihong Ted Yu commented on HBASE-6437:
---------------------------------------
Balancer is started in finishInitialization() toward the end of initialization:
{code}
status.setStatus("Starting balancer and catalog janitor");
this.balancerChore = getAndStartBalancerChore(this);
this.catalogJanitorChore = new CatalogJanitor(this, this);
startCatalogJanitorChore();
registerMBean();
}
status.markComplete("Initialization successful");
{code}
> Avoid admin.balance during master initialize
