Does it need time to remove the resource? I tried dropResource and the
very next call I invoke addResource to see if I can add it again and
the add call fails with the exception

org.apache.helix.HelixException: Skip the operation. Resource ideal
state directory already exists:/cluster/IDEALSTATES/resource-name
