Hi,
 I have noticed that my hbase client is complaining that

Trying to contact region server m0002036.ppops.net:60020 for region HEARTBEAT_CLUSTER,,1279930490584.a84b7160318e91ef51c7efd215cd7e46., row 'time\x09weekly\x092010W30', but failed after 10 attempts.

I then go to the hbase master web page and it shows that this region is there and served by one of the region server. however, I clicked on the link for that regionserver and found that this region is not listed on the served regions. I then searched the log on this region
server and I found the regionserver actually closed this region:

That means nobody can access this table any more. How could this happen ? I checked HDFS and confirmed the files for this table is there. I am using the CDH3 beta 2 hbase 0.89 version. I end up having to restart all regionservers to get this region online.
