[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-15549) Undo HMaster carrying regions in
master branch as default
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15549?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17185645#comment-17185645 ]
Duo Zhang commented on HBASE-15549:
-----------------------------------
Do we still want HMaster to carry regions now?
I plan to undo HMaster extends HRegionServer in code, as it introduces a lot of cyclic dependencies on start up and shut down, which is really a pain...

> I thought we had an issue to do this but I can't find it so here is a new one.
> Currently, in master branch, HMaster is a RegionServer and carries meta regions such as hbase:meta. Disable this facility by default until better thought through (I think we should undo master ever carrying regions; FBers are thinking we should go forward with notion that master carries meta/system regions. TODO). I want to disable it because this facility is not finished and meantime I want to test new stuff coming in on master branch w/o this new feature getting in the way.
> Parking here a patch that has how to disable master carrying regions and a probably redundant test that ensures all works when master is not carrying meta regions (added because it WASN'T working for me -- but was pilot error).
