[jira] [Issue Comment Edited] (HBASE-4213) Support instant schema updates with out master's intervention (i.e with out enable/disable and bulk assign/unassign)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4213?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13086356#comment-13086356 ]

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

I haven't gone through the patch yet.
bq. 5. Master will recursively delete the node /hbase/schema/<table name>, if the number of childrens of /hbase/schema/<table name> is greater than or equal to current number of active region servers.
You meant recursively deleting the children of node /hbase/schema/<table name>, right ?

For region server which joins the cluster after the creation of /hbase/schema/<table name>, it should be able to find out that it already reads the most recent HTD. Does it create a child node under /hbase/schema/<table name> ?
