Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-7327: ------------------------------------ TOM is a safety net to protect some region from stuck in transition. Since assignment is an async process, something could go wrong, right? Even for thread pool, we need an unhandled exception handler. I think we do need some safety net. We can make it light-weight and strong, if it is too heavy. I am out of town now and have limited internet access. If Stack and Ram are also ok with this idea, it is fine with me too. I just have a concern that users/operations may need to come up some way to handle stuck region transitions if we don't build it in. Ideally, region transition should not stuck, but it could be, because of asynchronous, right? > Assignment Timeouts: Remove the code from the master > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7327 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7327 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: master > Affects Versions: 0.96.0 > Reporter: nkeywal > Assignee: nkeywal > Attachments: 7327.v1.uncomplete.patch, 7327.v2.patch > > > As per HBASE-7247... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
