------------------------------
Summary: Delete the master znode after a znode crash
Key: HBASE-5926
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5926
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: master, scripts
Affects Versions: 0.96.0
Reporter: nkeywal
Assignee: nkeywal
Priority: Minor
This is the continuation of the work done in HBASE-5844.
But we can't apply exactly the same strategy: for the region server, there is a
znode per region server, while for the master & backup master there is a single
znode for both.
So if we apply the same strategy as for a regionserver, we may have this
scenario:
1) Master starts
2) Backup master starts
3) Master dies
4) ZK detects it
5) Backup master receives the update from ZK
6) Backup master creates the new master node and become the main master
7) Previous master script continues
8) Previous master script delete the master node in ZK
9) => issue: we deleted the node just created by the new master
This should not happen often (usually the znode will be delete soon enough),
but it can happen.
