> After HBASE-2896 / HBASE-4402, we think data locality is maintained after cluster restart.  However, we have seem some complains about data locality loss when cluster restart (eg. HBASE-17963).  
> Examining the AssignmentManager#processDeadServersAndRegionsInTransition() code,  for cluster start, I expected to hit the following code path:
> {code}
>     if (!failover) {
>       // Fresh cluster startup.
>       LOG.info("Clean cluster startup. Assigning user regions");
>       assignAllUserRegions(allRegions);
>     }
> {code}
> where assignAllUserRegions would use retainAssignment() call in LoadBalancer; however, from master log,  we usually hit the failover code path:
> {code}
>     // If we found user regions out on cluster, its a failover.
>     if (failover) {
>       LOG.info("Found regions out on cluster or in RIT; presuming failover");
>       // Process list of dead servers and regions in RIT.
>       // See HBASE-4580 for more information.
>       processDeadServersAndRecoverLostRegions(deadServers);
>     }
> {code}
> where processDeadServersAndRecoverLostRegions() would put dead servers in SSH and SSH uses roundRobinAssignment() in LoadBalancer.  That is why we would see loss locality more often than retaining locality during cluster restart.
> Note: the code I was looking at is close to branch-1 and branch-1.1.
