[jira] [Comment Edited] (HBASE-12686) Failures in split before PONR not clearing the daughter regions from regions in transition during rollback

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12686?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14246929#comment-14246929 ]

The unit test (at least in the 0.98 patch) does not quite check for a fix for the reported problem: "If there are any split failures then [...] block balancing to happen forever until unless master is restarted". It checks if there are no regions in transition after a split failure. Should we load up a few regions on a minicluster, fail a split on one of them, then check the master can balance? Or is it just sufficient to check there are no regions in transition after a split failure? 

Any chance the daughters may no longer be in transition at this point?:
{code}
1322	                  if (regionStates.isRegionInTransition(hri_a.getEncodedName())) {
1323	                    regionOffline(hri_a);
1324	                  }
1325	                  if (regionStates.isRegionInTransition(hri_b.getEncodedName())) {
1326	                    regionOffline(hri_b);
1327	                  }
{code}
