Disable table command hangs in hbase shell in HBase 1.1.2

[Anthony Nguyen <an...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I'm running into an issue in HBase 1.1.2 where after a cluster is running
for some time, disabling a table in the shell has no effect, hanging until
the timeout limit is reached. Looking at the master logs there is only one
message that has anything to do with it:

2016-02-12 13:16:23,237 INFO
[B.defaultRpcServer.handler=4,queue=4,port=60010] master.HMaster: Client=
*hadoop/null* disable test_table

Restarting the master fixes the issue, but this isn't a great solution.
Anyone happen to have any ideas?

Thanks!

The above log line looks like receipt of the command. What would be
interesting is any logging subsequent in that line that pertains to the
table you are trying to disable. Should be messages from regions going
offline.
