-------------------------------

             Summary: Backup master will never come up if primary master dies 
during initialization
                 Key: HBASE-8519
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8519
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: master
    Affects Versions: 0.95.0, 0.94.7
            Reporter: Jerry He
            Assignee: Jerry He
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.98.0


The problem happens if primary master dies after becoming master but before it 
completes initialization and calls clusterStatusTracker.setClusterUp(),
The backup master will try to become the master, but will shutdown itself 
promptly because it sees 'the cluster is not up'.

This is the backup master log:
