> When HBCK is running, we want to disable Catalog Janitor, Balancer and Split/Merge.  Today, the implementation is not robust.  If HBCK is terminated earlier by Control-C, the changed state would not be reset to original.  
> HBASE-15406 was trying to solve this problem for Split/Merge switch.  The implementation is complicated, and it did not solve CJ and Balancer.  
> We also have another problem is that to prevent multiple HBCK run, we used a file lock to indicate a running HBCK; earlier terminating might not clean up the file.  Sometimes we have to manually remove the file so that future HBCK could run.  
> The proposal to solve all the problem is to use a znode to indicate that one HBCK is running.  CJ, balancer, and Split/Merge switch all look for this znode before doing it operation.
