[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-12769) Replication fails to delete all corresponding zk nodes when peer is removed

cuijianwei commented on HBASE-12769:
------------------------------------

As a way to solve this problem, we might need:
1. set the peer to "REMOVING" state if the client decide to move a peer;
2. the client(or a worker of master) needs to help to delete hlog queues of dead servers which has not been transferred;
3. After all corresponding zk nodes deleted, the client could delete peerId zk node under peersZNode.
If the removing process fails, there will be a "REMOVING" state for the peerId and user should fail if tends to add a new peer with the same peerId.

> When removing a peer, the client side will delete peerId under peersZNode node; then alive region servers will be notified and delete corresponding hlog queues under its rsZNode of replication. However, if there are failed servers whose hlog queues have not been transferred by alive servers(this likely happens if setting a big value to "replication.sleep.before.failover" and lots of region servers restarted), these hlog queues won't be deleted after the peer is removed. I think remove_peer should guarantee all corresponding zk nodes have been removed after it completes; otherwise, if we create a new peer with the same peerId with the removed one, there might be unexpected data to be replicated.
