Enis Soztutar created HBASE-6469: ------------------------------------ Summary: Failure on enable/disable table will cause table state in zk to be left as enabling/disabling until master is restart Key: HBASE-6469 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6469 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.96.0, 0.94.2 Reporter: Enis Soztutar Assignee: Enis Soztutar
In Enable/DisableTableHandler code, if something goes wrong in handling, the table state in zk is left as ENABLING / DISABLING. After that we cannot force any more action from the API or CLI, and the only recovery path is restarting the master. {code} if (done) { // Flip the table to enabled. this.assignmentManager.getZKTable().setEnabledTable( this.tableNameStr); LOG.info("Table '" + this.tableNameStr + "' was successfully enabled. Status: done=" + done); } else { LOG.warn("Table '" + this.tableNameStr + "' wasn't successfully enabled. Status: done=" + done); } {code} Here, if done is false, the table state is not changed. There is also no way to set skipTableStateCheck from cli / api. We have run into this issue a couple of times before. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
