Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-8459:
---------------------------------------

yes, i did.  I'll edit the description to reflect that.
                
> make online region snapshotting based on region names instead of region 
> server names

>             Project: HBase
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: snapshots
>    Affects Versions: 0.94.6.1, 0.95.0
>            Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh
>
> Currently, online snapshots assign work by region server.  This works when 
> regionseveers do not fail or moved regions.  In 0.95+, the table locks 
> prevent moves while snapshotting is in progress but a failed RS during a 
> snapshot may still fail in the verification step.  This is because the 
> failure would trigger an assignment which may occur after the work for the 
> regionserver is determined, leaving some regions unsnapshotted, thus leaving 
> it to fail in the verification step.  
> If we instead assigned snapshotting work by region name, a moved region could 
> be snapshotted by the newly assigned region.
