> We're still working the on the root cause here, but after the leap second armageddon we had a hard time getting our 0.94 cluster back up. This is what we saw in the logs until the master died by itself:

> Except that the devil is in the details, ".META.,,1" is not ".META.,,1259448304806". Basically something writes to .META. by directly creating the row key without caring if the row is in the old format. I did a deleteall in the shell and it fixed the issue... until some time later it was stuck again because the edits reappeared (still not sure why). This time the PostOpenDeployTasksThread were stuck in the RS trying to update .META. but there was no logging (saw it with a jstack). I deleted the row again to make it work.
> I'm marking this as a blocker against 0.94.2 since we're trying to get 0.94.1 out, but I wouldn't recommend upgrading to 0.94 if your cluster was created before 0.89
