> master seems to be deleting region tmp directory from under compaction

> Key: HBASE-8653
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8653
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin

> Putting it in .1, feel free to move to .2.
> We have observed some compaction errors where the code was creating a new
> HDFS block, and the file would not exist. Upon investigation, we found the
> .tmp directory delete request on namenode from master IP shortly before that.
> There are no specific logs on master, but one thing running at that time was
> CatalogJanitor. CatalogJanitor calls
> HRegionFileSystem::openRegionFromFileSystem with readOnly == true (in fact,
> everyone does); if readOnly is true, HRegionFileSystem nukes the .tmp
> directory.
> We didn't go thru details on how it arrived there (or if there may have been
> other culprit), but it appears that deleting stuff if (readOnly) is not the
> intended behavior and it should be if (!readOnly). Given that readOnly is not
> really used (or rather is always true except some inconsequential usage in
> test) perhaps entire cleanup should be removed.
