Ted Yu commented on HBASE-7196:
-------------------------------
I think the purpose of isMasterRunning() is for checking whether master is
running after HBaseAdmin instance is successfully obtained.
> 'hbase shell status' throws exception when HBase is not running

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.94.1

> Its kind of a nuisance bug. One would assume that 'status' command should
> simply return something along the lines of "HBase is not running"
