Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-3787:
-----------------------------------------
We can do that... the problem with the approach is that region move is the
normal occurence so if users get these failures frequently they will probably
retry in their own code instead.
> Increment is non-idempotent but client retries RPC

> 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.
