keith-turner opened a new issue, #4610:
URL: https://github.com/apache/accumulo/issues/4610

   **Describe the bug**
   
   Tablets can only be scanned when they have less than a configurable number 
of files.   Scan servers remember a tablets files for a configurable time 
period.  If a tablet has too many files to scan then it may be unreadable on a 
scan server for scan servers configured period to remember tablets files even 
if the tablet is compacted.    
   
   This is a suspected bug, need to write a test to confirm.  
   
   **To Reproduce**
   
   The following outlines a possible test to confirm this problem.
   
    * Configure max files for scan to 20
    * Somehow temporarily disable compactions on a test table
    * Create greater than 20 files on tablet in the test table
    * Set the scan server tablet metadata cache timeout to 10 mins
    * Attempt to scan the tablet w/ >20 files on a scan server
    * Wait a little bit
    * enable compactions to reduce the number of files.
   
   **Expected behavior**
   
   Ideally soon after a tablet is compacted to have less than the max files for 
scan it would be readable on a scan server.
