-----------------------------------

             Summary: current region server failover mechanism for replication can lead to stale region server whose left hlogs can't be replicated by other region server
                 Key: HBASE-8357
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8357
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Replication
    Affects Versions: 0.94.3
            Reporter: Feng Honghua


consider this scenario: rs A/B/C, A dies, B and C race to lock A to help replicate A's left unreplicated hlogs, B wins and successfully creates lock under A's znode, but before B copies A's hlog queues to its own znode, B also dies, and C successfully creates lock under B's znode and helps replicate B's own left hlogs. But A's left hlogs can't be replicated by any other rs since B left back a lock under A's znode and B didn't transfer A's hlog queues to its own znode before B dies.
