milleruntime opened a new issue #768: Handle TableOps exists() issues
URL: https://github.com/apache/accumulo/issues/768
 
 
   This method has concurrency issues, mainly due to cacheing and the distributed environment of Accumulo.  For example, one process could create a table and this method could return false for another process because it's zookeeper cache doesn't have the table ID yet.  Another example... one process calls exists, gets true then performs an action on that table but the table is deleted before the process can perform the action on that table.  We seem to have to explain this to users quite often.  At the very least, we should document this in javadoc.
