> Inspection of the files above showed that they were all empty, but referenced
> in the {{!METADATA}} table. The solution was to move or remove the files from
> HDFS and delete the references from the metadata. The instance was then able
> to stabilize and assign the rest of the tablets.
> It is unclear why these empty walogs existed in the first place. Is it
> possible that there should have been data in these walogs? Or should the
> files have been disregarded since they were empty?
> Regarding the Rfile that was missing the block, it was not being referenced
> by the {{!METADATA}} table, so removing it had no negative effect on the
> instance. Should there have been some reference to this file?
