Description

AssignProcedure plan to open a region R1  on regionserver RS1 and RS1 failed due to missing table descriptor exception (throw new IOException("Missing table descriptor for " + region.getEncodedName()).  If the region is planned to this regionserver RS1 again , it will ignor this request and do nothing . So the region R1 will be in Region-In-Transition state forever even if the missing table descriptor problem has been solved!
