In the middle of upgrading our dev environment from 0.89 to 0.90.2CDH3B4. When we did the upgrade locally (Macs), no issues came up. Different story on our EC2 dev box it seems.
Background: - dev is running in pseudo-cluster mode - we neglected to set replication to 1 from 2 the first time we started it but we shut it off and fixed that setting It seems now that some regions are perpetually stuck in transition mode: https://gist.github.com/916562 Looked at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3406 and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3637 trying to find similarities but I'm not sure it's quite the same issue. hbase hbck -fix does not seem to rectify the problem. Here is its output: https://gist.github.com/916567 Any pointers are appreciated. Happy to give more info. -GS
