stack commented on HBASE-7057:
------------------------------

Chatting w/ Elliott more on this:

+ sequence id should probably be in .META.
+ having some metrics history would be sweet.  We could let it TTL out after an 
hour so we didn't keep too much around (or after an hour do the TSDB rollups if 
wanted)
+ A TSDB like query page for looking at the cluster over time would be sweet.
+ We should be careful to ensure we do not repeat the mistakes of the distant 
past when we used to keep a region history table into which we noted region 
transition; the problem there was our trying to record events like close when 
say, the cluster was going down, and the table we were trying to write would be 
down -- the writer could hang

This seems like a small thing to do that could improve usability alot.

> Currently the server hart beat sends over server load and region loads.  This 
> is used to display and store metrics about a region server.  It is also used 
> to remember the sequence id of flushes.
> This should be moved into an HBase table.  
> * Allow the last sequence id to persist over a master restart.
> * That would allow the balancer to have a more complete picture of what's 
> happened in the past.
> * Allow tools to be created to monitor hbase using hbase.
> * Simplify/remove the heartbeat.
