> The HTable.increment() operation is non-idempotent. The client retries the increment RPC a few times (as specified by configuration) before throwing an error to the application. This makes it possible that the same increment call be applied twice at the server.
> For increment operations, is it better to use HConnectionManager.getRegionServerWithoutRetries()? Another  option would be to enhance the IPC module to make the RPC server correctly identify if the RPC is a retry attempt and handle accordingly.
