Description

It turns out that in the case that tests an invalid deletion hint, either the newNode or source may be choosen to be deleted as an exessive replica since both of the nodes are on the same rack. The test assumes that only newNode will be deleted and wait for its deletion. This causes an infinite loop when source is chosen to be deleted.
