Well usually if one machine is not reachable, it's not a big deal since there are other machines to connect to and HBase redistributes the regions to them. Also, why is it refused?

I'd also like to understand why the region server isn't responding, the master can only know so much. > > I'm assuming it's not big deal and my solution can live with it. > > More logs bellow. > Consider pastebin or a web server next time ;)
