             Summary: [89-fb] Force to generate the hostAddress:port as 
stringValue in HServerAddress
                 Key: HBASE-7737
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7737
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: regionserver
            Reporter: Rishit Shroff
            Priority: Trivial


There is a serious bug in HServerAddress, who depends on the stringValue [class 
variable] for comparison. This variable is supposed to be host_ip_address:port. 

However, there is one constructor which allows user to pass a string as 
host_ip_address directly. This constructor is buggy because some caller may 
pass the host name instead of host ip address. And we found out one case in the 
HBase client.

The fix is to normalize the stringValue generation by calling the existing 
function getHostAddressWithPort.

For example:
this.stringValue = getHostAddressWithPort();
