Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-3787:
--------------------------------------
bq. The whole point here coming is how to query, from client, the result of an
old operation happened in server.
That is why I advocate above whether we should make nonces visible to the
client, and enable accepting client-defined nonces.
> Increment is non-idempotent but client retries RPC

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Client
> Affects Versions: 0.96.0, 0.94.4
> Reporter: dhruba borthakur
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 0.96.0

>
> The HTable.increment() operation is non-idempotent. The client retries the
> increment RPC a few times (as specified by configuration) before throwing an
> error to the application. This makes it possible that the same increment call
> be applied twice at the server.
> For increment operations, is it better to use
> HConnectionManager.getRegionServerWithoutRetries()? Another option would be
> to enhance the IPC module to make the RPC server correctly identify if the
> RPC is a retry attempt and handle accordingly.
