[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-8067) TestHFileArchiving.testArchiveOnTableDelete sometimes fails

["Ted Yu (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8067?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13598951#comment-13598951 ] 

Ted Yu commented on HBASE-8067:
-------------------------------

Looking at admin.deleteTable() in trunk, we use a loop to wait for table deletion to complete:
{code}
    // Wait until all regions deleted
    ClientProtocol server =
      connection.getClient(firstMetaServer.getServerName());
    for (int tries = 0; tries < (this.numRetries * this.retryLongerMultiplier); tries++) {
{code}
If deletion took too long, I would expect the following:
{code}
    if (tableExists) {
      throw new IOException("Retries exhausted, it took too long to wait"+
        " for the table " + Bytes.toString(tableName) + " to be deleted.");
{code}

> it seems that testArchiveOnTableDelete() fails because the archiving in DeleteTableHandler is still in progress when admin.deleteTable() returns.

> Error Message
> Archived files are missing some of the store files!
> Stacktrace
> java.lang.AssertionError: Archived files are missing some of the store files!

> (Looking at the problem in a more generic way, we don't have any way to inform the client when an async operation is completed)
